Excerpt from Geography: Europe and Asia In dealing with the homeland, United States and Canada presents only those items in the geography of each part of the country which, because of their outstanding importance, should be known by its young citizens everywhere. Accordingly, although unique provision is made for a study of the home locality, wherever it may be, the distinctive field of the state or local geography is not invaded. In the discussion of the West the necessary transition is made from the ideas Of general regions which were developed in Journeys in Distant Lands to those of work regions which underlie the organization of the material on the remainder of the United States. Urban geography receives unprecedented em phasis for an elementary treatment, an emphasis which is in keeping with the importance Of the city in modern American life and with the fact that more than half the people of the country live in urban communities. The cumulative carry over secured through the organization of material by work regions reaches its climax in the discussion of Canada.
