July temperatures across Africa and Asia, the limits of plant distribution in Europe and hailstorms around the Lower Rhine turn climate and landforms into visual questions in A New Physical Geography. The work was written by Élisée Reclus, edited by A. H. Keane and published by J. S. Virtue and Company, and the maps here date from 1886. They also include Greece and the Plessur valley near Chur, and an illustration of sea-bottom organisms extends the subject beneath the sea, all explaining geography through patterns and processes rather than political boundaries.
