Synopsis

Master the map with a clear, classroom-tested approach to drawing and labeling.

This practical guide teaches students how to build accurate map outlines and then complete them by following a logical order: mountains, water systems, and then cities and towns. It emphasizes forming a vivid, exact picture of geography in the learner’s mind and encourages using points rather than heavy lines to keep drawings neat.


Focused lessons blend drawing with geography, inviting teachers to spark curiosity about how physical features shape climate, commerce, and settlement. The book also shows how letters and simple figures can aid explanations while keeping the classroom visually clean.



  • Step-by-step methods for constructing map outlines and finishing details.

  • Strategies to connect drawing with real-world geography and reasoning.

  • Tips for using minimal lines and points to improve clarity and memory.

  • Guidance for engaging students in discussions about rivers, mountains, and urban placement.


Ideal for teachers and students using Mitchell’s geography materials, this edition supports a steady progression from drawing basics to map interpretation.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
