Excerpt from First Lessons in Geography: On the Plan of Object Teaching The plan of this little work is such, that the subject is presented in the most simple form. It treats of general features, such as the locality and description of Continents, Countries, States, Rivers, Mountains, &c., without dwelling prematurely upon details which embarrass the learner in his first effort. The Maps are free from all meridians, parallels of latitude, and any superabundance of names; thereby giving a greater prominence to the general divisions of land and water. The plan of Object Teaching, by which the mind receives impressions through the medium of the eye, is here so combined with the Map Exercises, that a child just able to read is at once interested and instructed.
