商品簡介
“Bringing together descriptions and illustrations of the St. Johns River and its characteristic flora and fauna from the golden age of natural history exploration, this book will be useful to both Bartram scholars and amateur naturalists.”—Timothy Sweet, author of American Georgics: Economy and Environment in American Literature, 1580–1864
“Illustrates the unique sense of a place of Florida and, in particular, the St. Johns River. Guides the reader along a transcendent spiritual journey that ends on the shores of ecology.”—R. Bruce Stephenson, author of John Nolen, Landscape Architect and City Planner
In 1765 the father and son naturalists John and William Bartram first explored the natural wonders of the St. Johns River Valley in Florida. Traversing a landscape that at the time was virtually unknown, one that was close to the subtropics in many ways and was then British territory, they collected plants and made extensive observations on local animal life, geography, ecology and native cultures of this essentially uncharted region. The Bartrams chronicled their adventures and, in doing so, helped provide the world with an intimate look at La Florida.
Travels on the St. Johns River presents writings by these pioneering naturalists, including selections from John Bartram’s Diary, family correspondence, and William’s description of the St. Johns River Valley from his celebrated Travels. It also provides valuable notes and a modern record of the flora and fauna they once encountered, allowing readers to see the land through the explorers’ eyes. This volume helps us rediscover the Bartrams’ history, their findings, and their Florida—as well as the Florida of today.
