Excerpt from Cosmorama: The Manners, Customs, and Costumes of All Nations of the World, Described Supposing my readers to have already learned Geography from the Abbe Gaultier's excellent book, ' I shall not here trouble them with the boundaries, divisions, and other geographical particulars Of the countries we must visit: the people, not the place, now claim our attention. Suffice it to Observe, that we shall take the four great divisions of the earth in succession, beginning with Europe, whence we shall proceed to Asia, thence to Africa, afterwards to America, and conclude with the Islands of the Pacific Ocean.
