by National Geographic Society

This volume of the National Geographic Magazine from March 1899 features two in-depth articles exploring crucial aspects of American history and geography. "The Original Territory of the United States" by Hon. David J. Hill provides a comprehensive look at the historical development of the nation's boundaries, highlighting key territorial acquisitions and expansions. Meanwhile, "Porto Rico" by Prof. Robert T. Hill delves into the island's geography, culture, and strategic significance, shedding light on its recent transition to American control following the Spanish-American War. The magazine's characteristic illustrations and detailed maps enhance the informative nature of these articles, offering readers a valuable glimpse into the historical and geographical context of the late 19th century.
