Book Description
Excerpt from A New Gazetteer: Or Geographical Dictionary, of North America and the West Indies In presenting this revised edition of his Gazetteer to the public, the author deems it proper to state that he has labored to render it as free from errors as the nature of the work will admit; and from his constant attention to the collecting of new matter, and the correction of errors, for several years past, he thinks he has been enabled to prepare a work as free from errors, if not more so, than any that has ever been presented to the public on this subject. That there may be errors in distances, population, &c., it is not denied, but it is hoped that the candid reader will make all due allowances for the same. No one can for any just conception of the great difficulties to be encountered in compiling a work of this kind, except one who has undertaken a similar task. The difference between this revised edition and the old one will be found to be very great, both in regard to the number of articles on the United States and in the lengthened descriptions of the same. The number of counties have been increased from 1,000 to about 1,300, and the towns and villages in an equal proportion. To bring the work to its present state of perfection, it has cost the author a great deal of labor and expense, and it is hoped that both he and the publisher will receive ample remuneration in the sale of the work. In the course of compilation, many extracts from books, papers, &c., have been taken, but in general they have been so altered in phraseology that it was not deemed proper to give quotation marks. Great care has been taken, that all the information was of the best and most recent that could be obtained. In short, the work is presented to an enlightened public, without any further apology, as the best and most correct that could be compiled under all the circumstances of the case.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
