LONDON: PRINTED FOR J HARRIS JUVENILE LIBRARY CORNER OF ST. PAUL'S CHURCH YARD 1809. ADVERTISEMENT This game, containing 116 little prints of the most interesting objects in Geography, is designed to familiarise youth with the names and relative situations of places, together with the manners, customs and dresses of the different nations in the habitable globe; and as curiosity will naturally be excited by the scenes which present themselves, and the observations likely to occur, it is presumed that these, with an occasional reference to the Synopsis herewith given, will prove a continual source of amusement to young people of both sexes, and will furnish such a fund of geographical knowledge, as may prove equally beneficial in reading and conversation. RULES AND DIRECTIONS FOR PLAYING THE GEOGRAPHICAL RECREATIONS In playing this Geographical Recreation a teetotum of eight sides is made use of, together with six counters of different colours, as markers; to avoid confusion in telling the game. Each player should also be provided with about two dozen of counters, on which a nominal value should be set, that any player who happens to be out, may purchase of the winners. If more than six persons sit down to play a greater number of markers may be cut out of card, and distinguished by figures, as may be agreed on. Each player proceeds in the game according to the numbers he spins, and pays the fine or receives the reward appointed. Advances are made by adding the figure turned to that on which the marker stands. Should any person spin a number on which there is already a marker, he must take its place, and the other must move one forward. Any player taking more than his due, must go back as many numbers as he took. If he take too few and the next player have spun, he must remain where he was. Whatever fines are marked in the list of numbers must be put into the pool, and the first who makes exactly 116 or the Return to Europe wins the game; but if he happen to spin above that number, he must go back as many from 116 as he spun beyond it, till he or some one else wins the pool and its contents. Persons going backward in the game are exempted from the fines attached to the figures on which they may be obliged to rest. Each quarter is to be played through from the top to the bottom and then the players are to being again at the top of the next quarter. The precise mode of playing will easily be learned for the following. EXAMPLE Suppose Alfred, Charles and George play the game, Alfred chooses a white marker, Charles a red and George a green one. Alfred by agreement spins first, and finding the uppermost number of the teetotum to be 2 he places his marker on the bombardment of Copenhagen and pays one counter to the pool. Charles spins next No. 8, places his mark on the winter diversion at Peterburgh and pays one counter. George next turns No. 1 , places his mark on the Norwegian traveller and receives a counter from each player. Alfred then plays again and spins No. 8 which being added to 2, his former number, sends him forward to the Prussian soldier, No. 10. Charles spins No. 7 and adding it to 8, his former number goes on to the Laplander, No. 15, and receives one counter from the pool. George then spins No. 5, which added to 1, carries him forward to Russia where his attention is excited by the winter dress of a gentleman and a boer. Again, Alfred spins No. 5 which authorises him to take the station occupied by Charles's mark; Charles therefore moves forward to No. 16 but is obliged to go back to Bashaw at No. 13. and George having spun No. 5, proceeds to the Tartar, No. 9 and pays one counter to No. 7 for defraying the expense of travelling in Russia. The booklet goes on to list each of the medallions and the rewards or forfeits The list is followed by a Synopsis which in turn is followed by a list of books, available from Harris and Harris and Walker.

REFERENZA 3 "Ce jeu, doté de 116 illustrations de plus intéressants objets de la geographie, a pour but de familiariser la jeunesse avec les noms et les situations des lieux, ainsi que les traditions, coutumes et habitude vestimentaires respective des differentes nations du monde connu; et dans la mesure où la curiosité sera excitée par les scènes représentées et le sens de l'observation s'en trouvant aiguisé, il est probable que ce jeu, parallèlement à une recherche occasionelle dans le synopsis joint, sera une source continuelle d'amusement pour les jeunes gens des deux sexes et fournira des bases géographiques qui seront aussi bien profitable à la lecture qu'à la conversation."
