Climatic Changes: Their Nature and Causes
Ellsworth Huntington and Stephen Sargent Visher
Climates shift over centuries, and Ellsworth Huntington set out to explain why. His work weighs the natural causes behind changing weather patterns across the ages, from sunspots to ocean and atmosphere, marshaling early climate science into a sweeping argument. A landmark of its field. For readers interested in how scholars first tried to explain a restless, changing climate.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
