The History of the Study of Landforms: Volume 1 - Geomorphology Before Davis (Routledge Revivals)

Analyses the development of the study of landforms, from both the geographical and geological point of view, with an emphasis upon fluvial geomorphology. This title treats the subject up to the first important statement of the cycle of erosion by W M Davis in 1889, and attempts to identify significant currents of geomorphic thought.
