    GENERAL SCIENCE. PINNOCK’S CATECHISMS of the ARTS and SCIENCES. Illustrated with Maps, Plates, and Wood-cuts. These Catechisms are intended to form the basis of every branch of useful knowledge, and are of themselves, in fact, “ an Epitome of the Arts and Sciences.” The style in which they are written is at once clear and simple, conveying instruction to the youthful mind in a manner unattainable by the use of more elaborate and comprehensive works. In short, while they fix on the mind the leading facts in History, and the fundamental principles of Science, the Memory is relieved from the burden of retaining a mass of minutie with which larger books necessarily abound. They consist of separate Catechisms on the following subjects, (PRICE NINE-PENCE EACH) Agriculture General Knowledge Music Algebra, Two Parts Geography Mythology Anatomy Geology Natural History Ancient Geography _ | Geometry Natural Philosophy Ancient History German Grammar Natural Theology Architecture Greek Grammar Navigation Arithmetic Hebrew Grammar Optics Astronomy Heraldry Painting in Oil Bible and Gospel History | History of England Perspective Botany(coloured plate)1s.
