Excerpt from Geography of Pennsylvania: For the Use of Schools and Private Families
In presenting the second edition of this Geography to the public, the compiler would beg leave to say, that some parts of the work have been considerably enlarged, and that untiring efforts have been made to render it correct. The county of Philadelphia has been examined by gentlemen of high literary attainments, who are well acquainted with this portion of the state. Sheets of most of the other counties have been sent to prominent individuals living in those counties; some of whom have made corrections, others important additions. To render the work still more attractive to the juvenile reader, a number of interesting and useful anecdotes have been added.
