Geography and History

"...geography is by nature the constantcompanion of historical studies; it is hardly

possible to grasp the one without the other."

"History is concerned with understanding thetemporal dimension of human experience (time and

chronology). Geography is concerned withunderstanding the spatial dimension of human

experience (space and place)." - NationalGeography Standards
