The publishers have embraced the opportunity of a new revision of the
work to augment its size, so that the book is now a third larger than
any of the preceding editions.

The Maps for the present edition have all been redrawn and re-engraved.
They are on a much larger scale, more distinct, and fuller in
information than those of the previous editions, or any similar work
extant. The true boundaries of all the Western States and Territories
are exhibited, California, Utah, &c., and proper attention given to all
political changes up to the present time.

Mitchell's Intermediate Geography, the last published book of the
series, has been before the public but a short time, yet it has been
extensively introduced and is now largely used in public and private
schools throughout the Union. It has been adopted independently, or in
connection with other numbers of the series, by the Public School
Directors of the cities of

New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Washington, St. Louis, Albany,
Rochester, Cleveland, Syracuse,
Utica, Schenectady, Oswego, &c. &c.

By numerous county boards in the various States, and a great number of
the towns and villages of the whole country.

MITCHELL'S GEOGRAPHICAL SERIES.

This work is designed to occupy a medium place between the Author's
Primary, and the well known School Geography and Atlas, of which last
book it contains about two-thirds of the amount of matter.

Like the Primary Geography, the Map Questions are upon the same or
opposite page to the map itself, so that in no case have the leaves to
be turned to find an answer to the question.
