Geography in the Middle Ages

About this book

Originally published in 1938, this book was the first to cover the history of geographical thought. It discusses the development of medieval earth-knowledge as it was affected, on the one hand, by the prevailing Christian and Muslim ideologies and, on the other, by the results of human enterprise on land and sea.
