_THE ROYAL ATLAS OF MODERN GEOGRAPHY._
In a Series of entirely Original and Authentic Maps. By A. KEITH

nearly 150,000 Places contained in this Atlas. Imperial folio,
half-bound in russia or morocco, £5, 15s. 6d. (Dedicated by
permission to Her Majesty.)
"No one can look through Mr Keith Johnston's new Atlas without seeing
that it is the best which has ever been published in this
country."--_The Times._
"Of the many noble atlases prepared by Mr Johnston and published by
Messrs Blackwood & Sons, this Royal Atlas will be the most useful to the
public, and will deserve to be the most popular."--_Athenæum._
"We know no series of maps which we can more warmly recommend. The
accuracy, wherever we have attempted to put it to the test, is really
astonishing."--_Saturday Review._
"The culmination of all attempts to depict the face of the world appears
in the Royal Atlas, than which it is impossible to conceive anything
more perfect."--_Monday Herald._
"This is, beyond question, the most splendid and luxurious, as well as
the most useful and complete, of all existing atlases."--_Guardian._
"There has not, we believe, been produced for general public use a body
of maps equal in beauty and completeness to the Royal Atlas just issued
by Mr A. K. Johnston."--_Examiner._
"An almost daily reference to, and comparison of it with others, since
the publication of the first part some two years ago until now, enables
us to say, without the slightest hesitation, that this is by far the
most complete and authentic atlas that has yet been
issued."--_Scotsman._
"Beyond doubt the greatest geographical work of our time."--_Museum._
