Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The descriptive geography of a region gives us an account of its various parts, such as rivers, valleys, hills, and mountains, independently of one another, except as to relative position. It deals largely with statistics of length, height, and area. In its more political chapters, it tells of the place, size, and busi ness of cities and states. |
