The "Geography of Oswego County" by E. G. Blankman, published in 1885, serves as an educational resource for public schools, detailing the county's formation from Oneida and Onondaga counties in 1816. Covering 960 square miles, the geography features undulating terrain, bluffs, and river valleys, with significant bodies of water like Lake Ontario and Oneida Lake. The soil composition varies, including limestone and sandy loam, and the county is home to notable towns such as Oswego, Fulton, and Mexico, alongside a robust public school system highlighted by a Normal School in Oswego.
