Note 235 — II A Sketch of the History of the Idea of Milieu Since the Beginning of the Nineteenth Century

Vide Wm. J. Thomas, Source Book for Social Origins (Chicago and London, 1909), p. 138 (Bibliogr. to Part I).—Without fear of contradiction, it may be said that the best two recent treatises on human geography are those by Brunhes and Semple.—For a brief concrete anthropo-geographical sketch, besides the works previously cited, cf. also W. Ule, Grundriß der Allgemeinen Erdkunde (2. verm. Aufl., Leipzig: S. Hirzel, 1915, 487 pp.), pp. 361 ff. See also the brief résumé in G. Schmoller’s Grundr. d. Allgem. Volkswirtschaftslehre (Leipzig, 1901), pp. 144 ff.
