Sinopsis

&ldquo,&hellip,.Mr. Mackinder',s admirable study of our islands comes in an opportune moment to show the general reader what a complex, interesting, and important science geography really ought to be&hellip,.&rdquo, &mdash, The Spectator (book review), 1902áBritain and the British Seas was originally published in 1902 by Halford Mackinder. He was the author of this first of a twelve-volume series on &ldquo,The Regions of the World,&rdquo, and editor of the remaining volumes. The aim of each volume was &ldquo,to present a picture of the physical features and condition of a great natural region, and to trace their influence upon human societies.&rdquo, Britain and the British Seas, which included the first comprehensive geomorphology of the British Isles, became one of Mackinder&rsquo,s major works and a classic in regional geography.
