From 1773 to 1777, naturalist William Bartram journeyed through the
American South from the Carolinas to Florida to the Mississippi
River. Bartram's classic account, "Travels," documents what he saw:
a world of flora, fauna, cultures, and terrains unknown to most
readers of his time--and, we too often assume, lost to us today.
"An Outdoor Guide to Bartram's Travels" reconstructs as closely
as possible the original routes Bartram took. Featuring some fifty
thoroughly tested and researched tours, the guide takes today's
outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs along Bartram's path through
what were once colonial towns and outposts, native kingdoms, and
unspoiled wilderness. Some tours can be taken by car or bicycle;
others can be taken only as Bartram himself would have traveled--on
foot, by canoe, or on horseback. The tours are supplemented with
more than 140 maps and photographs as well as informative sidebars
and listings of nearby points of interest.
As the guide points out details of both the natural and manmade
environments to be seen along each tour, it imparts an
understanding of the forces at work on the landscape. Visitors to
Paynes Prairie in north central Florida, for instance, are urged to
notice not only networks of manmade dikes built in the last century
but also evidence of current efforts to dismantle them and let the
wetlands again manage itself.
At one level, the guide is an invitation into the past, to
travel along with Bartram as he visits the lands of the American
colonists, the Creek, the Seminole, and the Cherokee--all on the
eve of the American Revolution. At another level, it is an
invitation to the present: to see how the some parts of the
American Southeast have changed in the last two centuries while
others have survived in all their wild splendor. From the mountain
grandeur of the Blue Ridge to the coastal beauty of Cumberland
Island, from the formal gardens of Charleston to the False River
plantations near the Mississippi River, the present answers the
past in "An Outdoor Guide to Bartram's Travels."
