Synopsis

In recent decades, historical geographers have left study of nature-culture interactions to others, most notably to environmental historians. This collection of articles, most of which have been written specifically for this volume, reveals a renewed commitment by, and a rapidly accelerating research agenda for, historical geographers interested in environmental issues. Following an introductory literature review, each case study explores either the direct unplanned impact of humans on the natural environment or the deliberate management policies designed to shape that impact.
