In 2004, Fate of the Forest was named one of the most influential books in cultural geography by the American Association of Geography.  The book has become a classic text in environmental studies, and has won numerous awards.  She is widely considered a preeminent authority on forest transition and sustainable agriculture.  In addition to her academic work, she has also written popular articles for the Nation, New Left Review and Fortune Magazine. Historical geography is the branch of geography that studies the ways in which geographic phenomena have changed over time.  It is a synthesizing discipline which shares both topical and methodological similarities with history, anthropology, ecology, geology, environmental studies, literary studies, and other fields.  Although the majority of work in historical geography is considered human geography, the field also encompasses studies of geographic change which are not primarily anthropogenic.  Historical geography is often a major component of school and university curricula in geography and social studies.  Current research in historical geography is being performed by scholars in more than forty countries.
