Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Blueprints for Tomorrow
The Book of Common Prayer has a beautiful phrase to ask the Lord to bless and preserve the kindly fruits of the earth, so that in due time we may enjoy them. Those kindly fruits, a great wealth of natural resources, exist in abundance. One of the most important problems of our time is to find out how they may be so controlled and distributed that people everywhere may in due time enjoy them.
In Geography and Human Destiny Roderick Peattie gives us a long View of man's place in his world home. Reading it will suggest the background of many problems for which we now seek a solution.
Dependent Areas in the post-war World, by Holcombe, takes us directly to the specific geographic problems of the present day.
