ABSTRACT
Economists, most of whom have long ignored or despised economic geography, are now taking a fresh interest in it.

If he chooses, [a country solicitor] can save hours of dull letter-writing by walking up and down streets, where he is certain to meet his clients, or he can transact business with them at the club or at a tavern. For my own part, though I have taken instructions on golf courses, and in cricket pavilions, I prefer in half-idle moments to consort with my clients, after the eighteenth-century fashion in coffee houses.
