An Historical Geography of England and Wales Summary

An Historical Geography of England and Wales by Robert A. Dodgshon

This text has been designed to cover all aspects and phases of the historical geography of England and Wales in a single volume. In this enlarged form, the treatment of standard themes has been completely rewritten to take account of recent work and shifts in viewpoint while its over-all coverage has been extended to embrace newer themes like symbolic landscapes and the geography of the inter-war period. Particular aspects of this book are that it covers from prehistory to 1939, uses a range of data sources and approaches, is illustrated with particular emphasis on key themes and that it offers a revision of the first edition with a wider range of topics.
