Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Geographical Guide; A Poetical Nautical Trip Round the Island of Great-Britain: With Entertaining and Illustrative Notes, in Prose, Descriptive of Its Principal Ports, Havens, Rivers, Creeks, and Inlets; Cities, Towns, Forts, and Mountains, &C. &C. &C The utility of Geography is too obvious to require any comment, and many writers have exerted themselves to render the study of that important science as facile and agreeable as possible. Generally speaking, however, works of a geographical nature are too dry to excite the attention of a juvenile, mind, and are, consequently, considered as mere tasks; particularly those parts which relate to the latitudes, longitudes, &c. In the following sheets an attempt has been made to interest the young reader in matters of this nature, by conducting him round the coast of Great Britain, and impressing on his mind the names of the most remarkable places and objects which occur in the Nautical Trip; and that he may the more readily commit these things to memory, the author has made all his leading observations in poetic numbers, which may be easily recollected upon every occasion, and consequently seem the best adapted for conveying geographical and nautical instruction.
