Description from the seller
Original edition of this geographical and historical synthesis of the department of Seine-Inférieure (now Seine-Maritime), intended for a scholarly and educated readership.
It systematically presents the physical characteristics of the territory: relief, hydrography, climate, and natural resources, linking them to economic and agricultural activities.
The authors emphasize the importance of port infrastructures (Rouen, Le Havre, Dieppe) and the strategic role of the department in France's 19th-century commercial and maritime exchanges.
The work also includes historical and administrative elements, tracing the evolution of territorial divisions, local institutions, and the main events that have marked the region.
