Under Threat of Fire. Issue 2 (2nd July 2020) - Rowley, Rex J.
Abstract : This auto-geographical, sense of place essay represents one approach to understanding a personal attachment to a location that has been disrupted by time and a destructive wildfire. It is written in the context of increased frequency of natural and human-caused disasters and a growing literature engaging the impact of disasters on place. It is an attempt to illustrate how a personal essay can be an important venue through which geographers can explore longstanding disciplinary themes of human interaction with place and the physical environment.
