Environmental Appreciation: Localities as a Humane Art
Environmental appreciation is akin to music and art appreciation in the fullest sense of a long-term training of the mind and attunement of the senses to grasp, to penetate, to experience to a more than ordinary degree.

This small but expanding field has produced a very substantial literature, including several new landmark publications during the past year. Historical geographers have earned high respect in the large world of historical scholarship and are pa…
