Geographies of the Romantic North: Science, Antiquarianism, and Travel, 1790-1830 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781137311313)

This book examines British scientific and antiquarian travels in the "North," circa 1790-1830. British perceptions, representations and imaginings of the North are considered part of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century processes of British self-fashioning as a Northern nation, and key in unifying the expanding North Atlantic empire.
