A Geographer By Declaration : Selected writings by George Jobberns
ISBN: 9781877257902 Author: Michael Roche (editor) Publisher: Canterbury University Press George Jobberns was appointed to the first geography lectureship in New Zealand in 1937, at what is now the University of Canterbury.

Five years later he became the country's first Professor of Geography. In an era when the accent for academics was more on teaching than research, Jobberns nevertheless published widely, including journal articles, encyclopaedia entries, popular articles and school textbooks. His Whitcombe's Regional Geography of the World, ran to six editions and was the entry point to geography for many secondary school and teachers' college students. This commemorative volume draws from his published and unpublished work on geopolitics, regional geography, and geography and geographers. First published June 2010.
