I have here for sale a rare book entitled A COMPLETE COURSE OF GEOGRAPHY, by means of instructive games invented by Abbe Gaultier,
the seventh edition corrected, improved, and divided into two parts.

The First Part containing The Game of Simple Geography  viz that which teaches the names and situations of the different countries and places of the earth

The Second Part containing a Geographical Game illustrative of Ancient and Modern History to which is prefixed A Treatise or short account of the Artificial Sphere.

The following things are necessary for the first game viz: 
1) a Set of Common Maps and another containing merely the Outlines of Kingdoms, Provinces, Course of Rivers Situation, principal town, ISlands, Mountains etc
2) a Set of Counters having the names of Kingdoms, Provinces, Islands, Seas, Rivers etc marked on them, that the pupils may themselves explain and point out their situations on the map.

Published by John Harris, Dulau, and Didier in 1811
