This is an annual collection of studies of individuals who have
made major contributions to the development of geography and
geographical thought. The thirtieth volume of "Geographers:
Biobibliographical Studies" takes as its subject the contributions
of nine individuals to the advancement and enrichment of
geographical knowledge. The subjects are drawn from across Europe
and the United States of America, from the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries, and include famous names as well as some less well known
figures. Each study includes a select bibliography, a list of
sources and a brief chronology of the life written about. As with
other volumes in the series, the purpose is not to evaluate, but to
present individuals and their contributions as they really were and
in the context of their time. The emphasis is on the development
and spread of ideas and their role in the history of geographical
thought. "Geographers Biobibliographical Studies (GBS)" is the
world-leading annual serial international publication devoted to
the critical biographical assessment of scholars' contributions to
geography and geographical knowledge.
