Canadian School Geography (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 452
Book Description
Excerpt from Canadian School Geography Canadian schools have been too long tied down to United States text-books in Geography either adapted or made over. Every paragraph of a good text-book in geography is permeated with the atmosphere of the country in which it is to be used. To adapt or make over such a book for another country quenches its fire and it becomes lifeless and uninteresting. To write a text-book from the Canadian standpoint has been the purpose of the present author. The subject matter, the comparisons, the maps, and the illustrations have the Canadian atmosphere. This text-book differs in several respects from those with which Canadian educationists are most familiar.

In-depth essays expand on specific topics of interest and importance, while outlook sections prognosticate about the near future of the regions. Each chapter concludes with a bibliography of books, articles, and reports that provide further sources for the interested reader.

Excerpt from New Canadian Geography: Specially Adapted for Use in Public and High Schools Geography is in reality one of the most important subjects taught in school, but it has been degraded in the past to the memorizing of lists of names of places, coupled with their location.

Humboldt, Guyot, Geikie, Huxley, Harris, and Parker have placed Geography on a higher plane, and have made it the true basis of the sciences most intimately related to man's physical existence.
