This article analyzes the militarized past and present at the University of California (UC) Davis through our \"Militarized Arboretum Walking Tour.\" The tour comprises multiple stops through the university's Arboretum botanical garden and central campus. By combining archival materials with situated observations on natural and built environments, participants examine how militarized and colonial systems, landscapes, and legacies impact and reflect ordinary life beyond the spectacle of the battlefield or wartime. We analyze how our walking tour, as a historical geographic method, offers participants novel ways of understanding and analyzing local and global, historical and present, issues of \"everyday militarism.\" We focus particularly on how the tour \"unsettles\" the campus environment undergraduate students encounter as a quotidian living and working space, and offer both direct student reflections and our own pedagogical insights on walking tours as an engaged strategy to teach both the local and transnational history of US empire.","PeriodicalId":52459,"journal":{"name":"Historical Geography","volume":"48 1","pages":"40 - 74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48363424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It examines the driving forces behind the changes in the northern Sharon Plain over four time periods: 1881, 1917, 1954–58, and 2011. To do this, historical land cover was reconstructed using different cartographical sources. The results show that the Sharon Plain has changed from mostly natural land cover features to mostly human-made ones. Some land cover categories have disappeared altogether (marshes, barren sand dunes). Each period examined had different proximate drivers that caused the land cover change. Moreover, at first, the main underlying causes of the change were mainly cultural, but in later periods these became more political and economic. This study demonstrates the importance of using historical map sources and the driving forces approach for understanding land cover changes over time.","PeriodicalId":52459,"journal":{"name":"Historical Geography","volume":"48 1","pages":"102 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45366747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
