Synopsis

"Past Time, Past Place" is a pioneering text that shows how historians are using GIS technology to take a fresh look at the past. It represents the tremendous range of new applications of GIS to historical events, from the Dust Bowl to the Salem witch trials, from Civil War battlefields to the landscapes of the Greek and Roman empires. Leading scholars explain how they have used GIS technology to organize historical research in a geographic context, explore evidence in new ways, map past places and events, and challenge long-standing historical interpretations. Richly illustrated, "Past Time, Past Place" makes a vivid supplement to many courses in history, geography, sociology, anthropology, religious studies, and GIS. It will also fascinate armchair historians who read history with an atlas at their side.
