- Abstract
The article provides information about American geography and the geography in New Zealand. William Morris Davis, president of the Association of American Geographers (AAG), has influenced the geography and geographers in the country. The founding years of AAG marks the year of publication of one of the earliest geographies of New Zealand. University geography has started in a harmful manner through the spasmodic forays at various colleges of the federal University of New Zealand and its formative years has attracted the best of British and American academic geography. The author said that the geographical cycle has kept the small academic fraternity in New Zealand with the international intellectual climate.
