Founding father of landscape studies
Before JB Jackson came along, there was no one who was looking at the literal terrain we live in, and how we live in it, with the combination of cultural insight, curiosity, and enthusiasm that he brought to it. The first chapter alone is worth the price of the book; many authors these days, including the esteemed art critic Lucy Lippard, attempt to cover the origin of the word "landscape" and what it has come to signify in contemporary usage, but no one I've run across treats this subject with Jackson's depth and expressiveness. For students of American cultural history, Jackson's approach to the built and natural environments could be especially enlightening.
