Contemporary anxieties about climate change have fueled a growing
interest in how landscapes are formed and transformed across spans
of time, from decades to millennia. While the discipline of
geography has had much to say about how such environmental
transformations occur, few studies have focused on the lives of
geographers themselves, their ideologies, and how they understand
their field. This edited collection illuminates the social and
biographical contexts of geographers in postwar Britain who were
influenced by and studied under the pioneering geomorphologist, A.
T. Grove. These contributors uncover the relationships and networks
that shaped their research on diverse terrains from Africa to the
Mediterranean, highlighting their shared concerns which have
profound implications not only for the study of geography and
geomorphology, but also for questions of environmental history,
ecological conservation, and human security.
