Geography of the World. By B. C. Wallis. (Macmillan and
Co. 3s. ed. not.)—This book may be taken as a characteristic example of what may be called the "New Geography," the geography which deals with "the forces which tend to shape human effort." As some limitation was made necessary by con- siderations of space, matters concerning the British Empire have naturally been Recorded a preference. The book is well illus- trated and furnished with statistical tables.
