Abstract

W ITHIN the thirty-five years from 1920 through 1954, American professional geographers published extensively in four leading periodicalsthe Geographical Review, Journal of Geography, Annals of the Association of American Geographers, and Economic Geography. Other professional publications in which geographic articles appeared included the Texas Geographic Magazine, the Yearbook of the Association of Pacific Coast Geographers, the Bulletin of the Geographical Society of Philadelphia, Landscape, and others of equal standing. In addition, geographers published many research papers in periodicals such as the quarterly of the Michigan Academy of Arts, Letters, and Science; the journal of the Ohio Academy of Science; the quarterly of the California Historical Society, and similar outlets. To this body of material may be added the mass of published and unpublished research efforts consisting of masters' theses and doctoral dissertations prepared in the centers of graduate instruction in the country. In an effort to determine what parts of the United States have been investigated most thoroughly by members of the geographic profession in this country, the contents of each publication were noted, and each article or thesis dealing with a particular part of the nation was placed in its appropriate place upon a series of maps.
