Abstract

Present paper states research and analysis of M.V. Piotrovskiy book about the life and artistic legacy of W.M. Davis and V. Penk. Previously this book couldn’t claim for deep review of the base geomorphological problems. However content, logic of statement, author’s continuous effort to analyze and connect the dots of previous and modern geomorphological science, to show urgency of ideas of two distinguished scientists, and also abundance of interesting facts, comparisons and references removes this book beyond the framework of customary popular scientific publication.
