About Rafael Torres Campos
- Rafael Torres Campos (1853–1904) was one of the most important Spanish geographers at the end of the 19th century.
- His work in Spanish geography was particularly relevant because it introduced modern currents of European and American geography into Spain.
- His dedication to teaching led to the creation of a sophisticated group of geographical educators whose influence, although difficult to measure, has extended to the present.
- Because of his close links with people and institutions of a progressive character his work has been completely neglected: these pages are dedicated to a late but necessary recuperation of his reputation.
