The Bartram 300, in 1999, will celebrate the birth of America's
first great naturalist and conservationist, John Bartram. His
scientific travels in Pennsylvania, New York and throughout
Florida, with his son William, are now scientific and mythic
legend. William's return to Florida in 1771, and later publication
of Travels, concluded the Bartram saga. The Bartrams awakened the
scientific and literary world to America's environmental beauty and
natural uniqueness. The Bartrams' history and their accomplishments
continue to be globally celebrated. A Celebration of the Bartrams
is a poetic interpretation of the travels of John and William
Bartram. It includes the physical and spiritual retracing, by the
author of the Bartram's environmental travels in Florida and
Philadelphia. Originally published as a 200th celebration of
Travels, its poems have had many readings. John Bartram's House was
read at the 1993 Centennial celebration and Bartram family reunion
at historic Bartram's garden in Philadelphia and published in the
proceedings. Flight of Savanna Cranes received honorable mention,
The John David Johnson Memorial Poetry Awards of Poet '93.
Institute, 1992-1993.
