Description
"Outlines of Geography and History, Presenting a Concise View of the World," Frederick Emerson (Reprint ed., Philadephia: Hogan and Thompson,) 1843. Originally published in 1841, the item is a school text that provides basic information on the geography, peoples, and history of the world's continents and many countries, often accompanied by woodblock drawings and handcolored maps. A timeline of "important events" and an index are also included. With heavy soiling, a cracked spine, and edge wear to the boards and foxing to many pages, the condition is fair.
