The Art and Science of William Bartram
Magee, Judith (Museum of Natural History, London)
William Bartram's love of nature led him to explore the environs of American Southeast between 1773 and 1777. Here he collected plants and seeds, kept a journal of his observations of nature, and made drawings of the plants and animals he encountered. This work brings together, sixty-eight drawings by Bartram held at the Natural History Museum.
