He is referenced in 1987's Annual Report along with other GA documents.
Patrick has also authored a wide range of books, often on the theme of maps and mapping, and I have a few in my classroom library of books from the 1980s and 90s. I found one the other day when doing some tidying to organise new resources.
He taught in Primary and Secondary Schools, before moving to the School of Education at the University of Leeds. He was Reader in Geography Education at the University of Leeds and Chair of the Cartography and Children Commission of the International Cartographic Association. He is a Fellow of the British Cartographic Society, a member of the UK Committee for Cartography and recently held a Leverhulme Research Fellowship in GIS in Education.
He was editorial adviser on atlases for Oxford University Press as well in a long career.
