Geographies of Mars: Seeing and Knowing the Red Planet

by K.MariaDLane (Author)

Synopsis

One of the first maps of Mars, published by an Italian astronomer in 1877, with its pattern of canals, fueled belief in intelligent life-forms on the distant red planet - a hope that continued into the 1960s. This title telescopes in on a critical period in the development of the geographical imagination.
