Excerpt from Outlines of Physical Geography The following pages have been prepared with the view of supplying the want of a treatise on Physical Geography, adapted to the use of Schools and Academies. It is rather a remarkable fact, that among the multitude and variety of school-books prepared for the schools in the United States, there is not one devoted exclusively to this science. The consequence is. That Physical Geography, as a separate study, is very rarely taught in our schools, and that all, or most of the knowledge acquired respecting it, is what is incidently obtained in pursuing other kindred studies.
