Originally published in 1948, this book provides a detailed study
of the contribution of ancient societies to the development of
geography, both in terms of theory and practical discovery. At the
time of publication, this was an area that had been largely
neglected by scholars, partly as a result of its ambiguous position
between various academic disciplines. The text concentrates mainly
on the perspectives of Greece and Rome, but other historical
periods and regions are given attention, including ancient Egypt
and China. Numerous illustrative figures and detailed notes are
also contained. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in the development of historical geography and ancient
history.
