- Europe and the British Geographical Imagination,1760-1830 (x + 323 pages, Oxford University Press, 2019) is a 140,000-word research monograph. It examines British ideas about Europe through close study of popular geographical textbooks, schoolbooks, encyclopaedias and gazetteers, most of which have never previously received sustained scholarly attention. In total it analyses nearly 350 such geography books, some up to 30 volumes in length, as well as 140 related primary source texts. The frequently anonymous and pseudonymous nature of these materials has required extensive investigation into questions of authorship, date and derivation. The monograph has taken fifteen years to research and write.
