This article presents Eugeniusz Romer (1871–1954), a great humanist and patriot, world-famous scientist, one of the most prominent Polish geographers of the first part of the 20th century, a founder of modern Polish cartography, author of many maps and atlases, and an outstanding climatologist and glaciologist. He was also interested in hydrography, geomorphology, regional and economic geography and the influence of geographic phenomena on social and economic life, and was the first scientist to point at a link between geography and politics, and Poland’s geopolitical location and her relations with neighbours. Since his early years he had been very active politically and socially. He lived in the middle of great social and political transformations, wars and revolutions, shaping Poles social and national awareness, Polish independence fight, battles for territories and the future nature of Poland – in all those events he also took an active part.
