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
