FIRST BOOK IN PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
By Ralph Stockman Tarr, B.S., F.G.S.A., Professor of Dynamic Geology and Physical Geography at Cornell University. 12mo, Half Leather, $1.10 net.
The striking success of Tarr’s Elementary Physical Geography in high schools has led to the preparation of this First Book, which is designed for use in public and private schools requiring a somewhat shorter course than is given in the Elementary Physical Geography. Its claim to attention lies in its presentation of physical geography in its modern aspect. The main emphasis is laid upon physiography, and all the features that have contributed to the rapid introduction of the earlier books are retained in simpler form.
ELEMENTARY PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY

The widespread and increasing use of Tarr’s Elementary Physical Geography, due originally to the recent and general change in methods of teaching the subject, has received a renewed impetus during the present year from the enthusiastic commendations of the teachers in the public schools of Chicago, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Kansas City, and many other important centers.
