Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings on the Inauguration of Swarthmore College: Eleventh Month 10th, 1869
The Geography of a country being so closely connected with its history, the student will always be required to study and recite with maps, which are quite as essential as text-books. And now that the arts of engraving and photography bring us into immediate relation with other countries, we hope, by the thoughtful kindness of friends, to have portfolios of views and portraits to illustrate each subject, heightening thereby the impression produced.
