-- ROBERT L. THUNEN, University of North Florida
Environmental History of Northeast Florida explores a region of 5000 square miles over 18,000 years. The environmental and human changes are profound, and an account of them demonstrates not only how the region came to be what it is today, but also how environmental processes work on a large time scale. Trying to understand the land based solely on what we observe today is like trying to understand a movie by seeing only the ending.
Environmental history presents a big picture, a long view. Its scope is purposefully broad to avoid the narrowness of specialization and the compartmentalization of traditional approaches in the natural and social sciences. It offers a framework that accommodates widely disparate factors in understanding history as well as the present. To the extent it reveals a more accurate understanding of environmental factors and procceses, it has the potential to improve our management of our surroundings in the future.
