What is Environmental History? by J Donald Hughes
In this seminal student textbook, J. Donald Hughes provides a masterful overview of the thinkers, topics and perspectives that have come to constitute the exciting discipline that is environmental history.
"An essential reference source" --Philip Conford, Rural History "Anyone seeking help in navigating the shoals of environmental history will give fulsome thanks to Don Hughes for this book. It is far and away the best guide yet to the issues and historiography of this emerging field, spanning the globe and delving into the deep as well as recent past." --J. R. McNeill, Georgetown University "What is Environmental History? is a masterfully condensed overview of one of the most urgent and rapidly developing fields of history. Written by a scholar of classical antiquity, it gracefully covers ancient, medieval, and modern periods - with a global vision. A state-of-the-art report for any scholar, and a perfect introduction for the student." --Sverker Sorlin, Royal Institute of Technology Stockholm
J D Hughes is John Evans Distinguished Professor of History at the University of Denver, Colorado.
