From the Preface: "Special attention has been paid in this book to the study of climate and to the use of maps. The methods adopted differ somewhat from those often employed. Instead of attempting to provide a condensed encyclopaedia of geographical information the author has selected the facts in the regional description of each country which seemed most typical of the physical conditions, and dealt with them in considerable detail."
