Book Description
Excerpt from Human Geography: An Attempt at a Positive Classification, Principles and Examples La Géographic humaine, by Jean Brunhes, gave us a new point of view in human geography, and a new method of analysis of an ever-appealing phase of geography. To make the new outlook available to students in normal schools and colleges and to the general reader has been the purpose of the editors in preparing the American edition. This work was necessarily interrupted by war conditions, and the volume was delayed far beyond the time originally planned. To meet the needs of American conditions, certain sections and chapters have been omitted, and, at the request of the author, the regional description of the Central Andes has been substituted for chapter vii in the original. In addition, the footnotes have been reduced in number and restricted to sources available in a good geographical reference library. Illustrations, footnotes, and text have been added to bring out significant and pertinent American facts in human geography. Otherwise the original text has been followed faithfully. Professor LeCompte has aimed not merely to translate the idea but the exact shade of meaning contained in each part of the original. In case of doubt the editors cooperated in a personal discussion of the linguistic or geographical point, in order that the rendering into English might be faithful and smooth. In the revision of the proofs, regional references have been changed where necessary according to the latest information available. From the Preface to the First Edition Human geography is not completed. It is known that much remains to be done. This book is therefore not a "treatise," properly speaking (that term would undoubtedly be too presumptuous); it is rather a "manual" giving essential directions.
