	CSISS Classics - Ellen Churchill Semple: The Anglo-Saxons of the Kentucky Mountains, 1901 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Semple received numerous honors during her career, including an honorary doctorate from the University of Kentucky (1923), the Cullum Medal from the American Geographical Society (1914), and the Helen Culver Gold Medal from the Geographic Society of Chicago (1931).
