Excerpt from A Geography of Asia Including the East Indies
Consequently, this Series contains no maps and little variety of type; and I have intentionally avoided mentioning, ag. Exact heights, distances or sizes, small industries and unimportant places. Wherever any definite comparisons are made, they are intended only for reference, and not to be learnt. Some attempt has been made in the Index to indicate the pronunciation of some names which are often accented wrongly. The spelling is based almost entirely on Mr. Chisholm's invaluable Gazetteer.
