"18th-century American naturalist William Bartram traveled the southeastern United States (then colonial) between the years of 1773 and 1777 documenting and illustrating species of plants and animals previously unknown to western civilization. Bartram was also an astute ethnographer, providing us with some of the only descriptions from that era of Native American villages and customs..." as noted by the Blue Ridge Bartram Trail Conservancy.
