" The students of Dr. Wm. Smith's admirable Dictionaries must have felt themselves again
and again brought up *hort fur want of an Atlas constructed on the same scale of precise and
minute information with the article they were reading. This want has been supplied by the
mperb work before us. The indices are full, the engraving is exquisite, and the delineation of
the natural features very minute and beautiful. It may safely be pronounced—and higher
praise can scarcely b* bestowed—to be a worthy companion of a series of familiar volumes
which it is intended to illustrate."—The Guardian,
