Shewing the situation, extent, and boundaries, of the several empires, kingdoms, republics, principalities, provinces, &c., their climate, soil, and produce; their principal buildings, manufactures, and trade; their government, policy, religion, manners, and customs; and the distance and bearing of all the principal towns from one another. Including the most material revolutions and changes that have happen'd in every state, either by conquest or treaties; and comprehending whatever is curious and remarkable in the works of art or nature. To which is prefixed, An introduction to geography, as a science: an explanation of maps: the doctrine of the sphere: the system of the world: and a philosophical treatise of the earth, sea, air, and meteors. In two volumes. The whole illustrated with seventy maps, by Emanuel Bowen, Geographer to His Majesty, being all new-drawn and ingraved according to the latest discoveries and surveys; making, of themselves, a complete atlas, for the use of all gentlemen, merchants, mariners, and others, who delight in history and geography.
