Download and read online ebook William Bartram and the American Revolution on the Southern Frontier write by Edward J. Cashin. This book was released on 2007-02-04. William Bartram and the American Revolution on the Southern Frontier available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In Travels, the celebrated 1791 account of the "Old Southwest," William Bartram recorded the natural world he saw around him but, rather incredibly, omitted any reference to the epochal events of the American Revolution. Edward J. Cashin places Bartram in the context of his times and explains his conspicuous avoidance of people, places, and events embroiled in revolutionary fervor. Cashin suggests that while Bartram documented the natural world for plant collector John Fothergill, he wrote Travels for an entirely different audience. Convinced that Providence directed events for the betterment of mankind and that the Constitutional Convention would produce a political model for the rest of the world, Bartram offered Travels as a means of shaping the new country. Cashin illuminates the convictions that motivated Bartram-that if Americans lived in communion with nature, heeded the moral law, and treated the people of the interior with respect, then America would be blessed with greatness.

This book was released on 2011. Philip Juras available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. These stunning reproductions of more than sixty oil paintings by landscape artist Philip Juras offer a glimpse of the pre-European settlement southern wilderness as late eighteenth-century naturalist William Bartram would have experienced it during his famed travels through the region. Juras spent years researching Bartram and revisiting important sites the naturalist wrote about in his celebrated Travels. The paintings combine direct observation with historical, scientific, and natural history research to depict, and in some cases reimagine, landscapes as they appeared in the 1770s. Juras's work explores many of the important and imperiled ecosystems that remain in the South today. These little-known, remnant natural communities are further illuminated by essays placing them in the context of Bartram's legacy and the American landscape movement. Here is a rare glimpse of the southern frontier before it was irrevocably altered by European settlement.
