Cambridge, among Armstrong's earliest recollections was seeing
Darwin's granddaughter painting pictures of the River Cam. Geoffrey

"This singular work—the latest in a series issued by the Commission
on the History of Geographical Thought of the International
Geographical Union—combines several engagingly written biographical
sketches of noted geographers together with corresponding selective
bibliographies...This little book, indeed the entire series, should
prove helpful to scholars and students in geography departments all
over as well as the inquisitive layperson."
