Observations on the Topography of the Plain of Troy: And on the Principal Objects within, and around it Described, or Alluded to, in the Iliad - Cambridge Library Collection - Classics
James Rennell
James Rennell (1742–1830) could be claimed as the father of historical geography. In this 1814 work, he compares the topography of the area where Troy was believed to be located with the accounts of the Homeric texts, and with ancient commentators and geographers, offering an important contribution to the controversy.
