Anmerkungen:
"The following compendium of geography is intended entirely for the use of schools, and those persons who have not leisure to peruse a larger treatise. ... He has not followed the common method of teaching the elements of geography by question and answer, ... He has made it his study to exhibit to the reader, in as short and concise a manner as possible, all the most important objects of geography. ..."--Preface, p. [v], dated: Deerfield, (Mass.), 16th Feb. 1803
