This classic text retains the superb scholarship of the first
edition in a thoroughly revised and accessibly written new edition.
With both new and updated essays by distinguished American and
Canadian authors, the book provides a comprehensive historical
overview of the formation and growth of North American regions from
European exploration and colonization to the second half of the
twentieth century. Collectively the contributors explore the key
themes of acquisition of geographical knowledge, cultural transfer
and acculturation, frontier expansion, spatial organization of
society, resource exploitation, regional and national integration,
and landscape change. With six new chapters, redrawn maps, a new
introduction that explores scholarly trends in historical geography
since publication of the first edition, and a new final chapter
guiding students to the basic sources for historical geographic
enquiry, North America will be an indispensable text in historical
geography courses.
