Description

"This book is for anyone interested in landscape. Scholarly but accessible, it will appeal to non-academic readers as well as historians, geographers, life-writing scholars, and environmental psychologists. It develops a new approach to landscape history based on comparative biography, exploring the relationship between individual lives and landscapes in unprecedented depth"--
