(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

A sia. It is more than that, however, for scattered through the narrative there runs a description of the physical features of the great central basin of Asia and a discussion of their effect upon the life and habits of two contrasted types of people. One type lives in the mountains around the basin. It is nomadic and obtains its support chiefly from sheep, horses, and cattle, and its life is full of movement and excitement. The other type lives in the oases of the basin itself amid vast desert wastes of sand, gravel, clay, and salt. I ts life is hemmed in by the narrow circle of the irrigated land and of the reedy poplar brakes roundabout, and so it is monotonous, unstimulating, and yet to the traveler most fascinating. Shot through the narrative and the description of the land and people there is yet another phase of this book. It takes the form of an attempt to state clearly and impartially the evidence which ultimately led to what I have called the hypothesis of pulsatory climatic changes. A mong the mountains as well as in the deserts there are abundant indications that at some time the climate was different from now, the country more densely populated, and the civilization higher. (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free.

Ellsworth Huntington was born on September 16, 1876 in Galesburg, Illinois, United States. Son of Review Henry Strong and Mary Lawrence (Herbert) Huntington.
Ellsworth Huntington received a Bachelor of Arts from the Beloit (Wisconsin) College, 1897. A Doctor of Science degree from Harvard, 1901-1903, Master of Arts, 1902, non-resident fellow, 1906-1907. Doctor of Philosophy from Yale, 1909.
An instructor at Euphrates College, Harput, Tur. (1897–1901), Huntington explored the canyons of the Euphrates River in Turkey (1901). He described his travels through central Asia (1903–06) in The Pulse of Asia (1907). He taught at Yale University from 1907 to 1917, when he became a research associate in geography. Leader of the Yale expedition to Palestine and Asia (1909), he published Palestine and Its Transformation in 1911. As a research associate of the Carnegie Institution, Washington, D.C. (1910–13), he made climatic investigations of the United States, Mexico, and Central America. His work chiefly concerned the relation of climate to land forms, geological and historical changes, human activities, and the distribution of civilizations. These researches produced several works, including Civilization and Climate (1915; rev. ed. 1924), The Human Habitat (1927), and Mainsprings of Civilization (1945).
