Universal geography formed into a new and entire system: describing Asia, Africa, Europe, and America; with their subdivisions of Empires, Kingdoms, States, and Republics: The Extent, Boundaries, and remarkable Appearances of each Country; Cities, Towns, and Curiosities of Nature and Art. Also giving a general account of the Fossil and Vegetable Productions of the Earth, and of every Species of Animal: the history of man, in all climates, regions, and conditions; customs, manners, laws, governments, and religions: the state of arts, sciences, commerce, Manufactures, and knowledge: sketches of the Ancient and Modern History of each Nation and People. To which is added, a short view of astronomy, as connected with Geography; of the Planetary System to which the Earth belongs; and of the Universe in General. By John Payne. With a set of maps, With a Set of Maps, drawn from the best Materials, every one of which is very Neatly coloured; and a great variety of copper-plates; Descriptive of the most Remarkable Curiosities in the World. The Benefit of Geography is manifold. Some Parts relate to Civil Matters, and the Exploits of princes; some to the Heavens and to the Earth; Also to the Knowledge acquired by Navigation; to an Acquaintance with Animals, Plants, and Fruits, which are universally overspread. Strabo, Book I. Poem
