Abstract
MUCH yet remains to be done before geography is taught and studied in schools according to reasonable methods. Everybody agrees that geography, like most other subjects, can be made a valuable educational instrument provided that it is taught by practical methods and that the teachers are familiar with its realities. Mr. Burrows describes some methods of teaching geography, and shows how the subject may be usefully approached. There is little new in his views or advice; nevertheless, the book may serve to place aspiring teachers in a position to give satisfactory lessons in geography.
