A History of Mississippi (Classic Reprint): For Use in Schools

Excerpt from A History of Mississippi: For Use in Schools

Maps are as necessary to a history as to a geography, and in the history of Mississippi they are' especially important. It is impossible for a stu dent to form a correct idea of what Mississippi was when a part of Brit ish Florida, or when it was first organized as a Territory, or even when it was first admitted as a State, except with the aid of a map. It is recommended that pupils be required to reproduce each map, drawing it from memory, and that teachers ask such map questions as will thor oughly impress the geography of that particular time.
