Aikin's Geography:
just fu3l1shed,
And for sale by M. iff J. CONRAD iff CO.
(Price Two Dollars)
Geographical Delineations;
Or, A Compendious View ofthe Natural and po-
litical State of
ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD.
By J. Aik.in, M. D.
Author of mt.r.y valuable Works.
" The precise object aimedatin ihis work,
(says Dr. Aikin,) is to afford, in a moderate
compass, and under an agreeable form, such a
view jf every thin;;- most important relative to
the natural rid political state of the world, as
may dwell upon the mind in vivid colors, and
durably impress it with just and instructive
notions.
" No particular class or age of readers has
been in my view in this performance. If it
prove answerable to mj intentions, young; per-
sons of both sexes, at the period of finishing
t;;cii- education, may peruse it uuth advantage,
as a summary ot what is most important to be
remembered relative to the topics treated of;
and it may afford compendious information to
those of maturer years, who are destitute of
time and opportunity for copious research."
Tho' we possess many geographical works,
yet it is presumed that the publication of Ai-
kin's Geographical Delineations needs no apo-
logy. Many competent judges in Philadel-
phia, New-York did Boston, have examined
this work, and unanimously agree fjy»t it is
neat, perspicuous and useful; well adapted to
the instruction of youth, and the information of
persons of mature age. Perhaps it is no exag-
gerated praise of this work to assert, that no
system of geography of equal size is, in all re-
spects, so fit for the purposes of instruction and
general reading.
liztract from the AnnualReview, vol. 4.
" The happy application of clear mid precise
description, judicious selection, and graceful
plan nness of style, to the illustration of geogra-
phy, has already been felt and approved by tlni
public, in Dr. Aikin's England Delineated.
Nor will these Geographical Delineations,
which at present demand our attention, be
found in any respect unworthy of their author.
DilTering materially as to its object, both from
the elementary treatises, and the more com-
plete s_\ stems of this important and interesting
branch of general science, this work may be
considered as occupying a newly discovered
station, whence young persons of both sexes
may review with pleasure and advunrage the
real extent h bearings of their farmer studies.
" The principal materials of this work are
necessarily compiled from other books; but a
vein pleasing part of it, the delineation of na-
tional characters, is original; and the strong
tincture of liberal mode ration diffused through
the -whole, together with the uniform good
taste and simplicity of the style, give to it a cer-
tain charm that is easier lelt than described."
