This enlightening book makes visible the lives and works of women who played a critical role in the development of geography as an academic field.

A rare and detailed analysis of the geographical work of 30 individual women geographers from 1850 to 1970
Includes oral histories from women who have held appointments in British universities since World War II
Makes the work of women geographers visible and challenges the notion of pre 1970s geography as an overwhelmingly masculine field
Makes an important contribution to debates about the theoretical and methodological framing of the historiography of geography

Industry Reviews

"Complex locations should be included on all undergraduate courses about the history of the discipline, and should be read widely by other researchers interested in women and the history of geography, science and education." (Area Book Reviews, 1 November 2010)
