Synopsis
A Brief Descriptive Geography of the Empire State, For the Use of Schools is a clear, classroom-minded introduction to the physical features, resources, and regional character of New York State—long known as the “Empire State.” Written expressly for students and teachers, this concise text presents geography as something practical and observable, connecting land and waterforms to settlement, industry, and everyday life.
With an emphasis on straightforward explanation and organized presentation, C. W. Bardeen guides readers through the state’s location and boundaries, surface and drainage, climate, and the development of its cities and communities. The result is a useful snapshot of New York’s geographic identity, designed to support study, review, and recitation in a school setting.
Ideal for readers interested in historical education, regional geography, and classic school texts, this English edition offers a window into how students once learned to describe and understand New York State through the lens of descriptive geography.
