Redbrick Academic Geography

The history of academic geography before 1945 has been explored in outline but the institutional setting of the new subject has been unduly neglected. The five 'redbrick' universities, established in the first years of the twentieth century, form a coherent group of institutions for which a comparative survey of the establishment of geography as an honours subject is presented. The links between the early teachers in these departments are explored and the influence of the RGS and the Geographical Association is assessed. The early years of geography at Birmingham are treated in greater detail to exemplify these themes
