Synopsis

Excerpt from Geography of Virginia

Having had much experience in teaching the geography of the State, and appreciating the diffities that arise for children in most works upon the subject, I have endeavored to make the contents of this book conform as closely as possible to the needs and capacities of young minds. But, though written primarily for children, it will not, perhaps, be altogether unaccept able to those of more mature intellect.
