“ The Physical Atlas of Mr Keith Johnston—a perfect treasure of compressed information.”—
Sir John Eerschel.
“ There is no map in this nohle Atlas upon which we might not he tempted to Write largely.
Almost every one suggests a volume of reflection, and suggests it by presenting, in a few hours,
accurate truths which it would be the labotir of a volume to enforce in words, and by imprinting
them, at the same time, upon the memory with such distinctness that their outlines are not
likely to be afterwards effaced. The | Physical Atlas ’ is a somewhat’ costly work, reckoning it
only by its paper; but upon its paper is stamped an amount of knowledge that could scarcely be
acquired without the reading of as many books as would cost seven times the price.”—Examiner.
“ This Atlas ought to have a place in every good library. . . . We know of no work containing
such copious and exact information as to all the physical circumstances of the earth on
iwhich we live.”—Quarterly Review.
