Geography, Science and National Identity: Scotland since 1520 (Cambridge Studies in Historical Geography) Book

Charles Wither's book takes Scotland as an exemplar of the relationship between geographical knowledge and national identity. In so doing he explores new perspectives on Empire, national characteristiscs and local geographies of science, and advances a previously unexplored area of geographical enquiry--the historical geography of geographical knowledge. The book offers a broad-ranging approach to the subject, and will be of interest to students in the field, as well as to imperial historians. It is well-conceived and beautifully illustrated.Read More
