A juvenile biography of father and son, John and William Bartram, naturalists who lived in the late 18th and early 19th centuries in America. The Bartrams were America's first native botanists, father and son travelers, plant hunters, and master gardeners. They traveled the east coast and observed and wrote about the nature they found. Their story is full of adventure and curiosity. Their interests took them on wide travels, including through Florida in 1774. William Bartram's most famous book is Travels, which is of particular interest for its early description and drawings of Florida. His book is an important part of Florida's early records. This is seventh book in Pineapple Press's Young Readers series of biographies of famous people who influenced Florida. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series

"John Bartram was the greatest horticulturist and botanist of eighteenth-century America, a farmer-philosopher who won the patronage of King George III and Benjamin Franklin. His son William was a pioneering naturalist who documented his travels though the Florida wilderness in prose and drawings that inspired a generation of romantic poets." "As he follows the Bartrams through their respective careers - and through the tenderness and disappointment of the father-son relationship - Slaughter examines the ways in which each viewed the natural world: as a resource to be exploited, as evidence of divine providence, as a temple in which all life was interconnected and sacred."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

A selection of writings from naturalists John and William Bartram, who explored Florida in 1765 In 1765 father and son naturalists John and William Bartram explored the St. Johns River Valley in Florida, a newly designated British territory and subtropical wonderland. They collected specimens and recorded extensive observations of the region’s plants, animals, geography, ecology, and Native cultures. The chronicle of their adventures provided the world with an intimate look at La Florida. Travels on the St. Johns River includes writings from the Bartrams' journey in a flat-bottomed boat from St. Augustine to the river's swampy headwaters near Lake Loughman, just west of today’s Cape Canaveral. Vivid entries from John's Diary detail the settlement locations of Indigenous people and what vegetation overtook the river's slow current. Excerpts from William's narrative, written a decade later when he tried to make a home in East Florida, contemplate the environment and the river that would come to be regarded as the liquid heart of his celebrated Travels. A selection of personal letters reveal John's misgivings about his son's decision to become a planter in a pine barren with little shelter, but they also speak to William's belated sense of accomplishment for traveling past his father's footsteps. Editors Thomas Hallock and Richard Franz provide valuable commentary and a modern record of the flora and fauna the Bartrams encountered. Taken together, the firsthand accounts and editorial notes help us see the land through the explorers' eyes and witness the many environmental changes the centuries have wrought.

Presenting the exciting accounts of American botanist, ornithologist, and explorer William Bartram's pioneering survey of the American south. Around the time the American colonies were forcibly dismissing the political bands that connected them to England, Bartram was exploring the wilds of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida searching for undiscovered plants and birds. As a result, he combined scientific discoveries with incredibly vivid descriptions of nature and delivered a work that would delight both scientists and poets. These chronicles of his four-year journey to the southern British colonies in America are influential as a scientific work, a historical reference regarding American Indians and the American South, and a contribution to American literature.
