It’s funny how it all starts to come together at some point. I feel like I’ve been training for this for a long time, without really knowing I was doing it. I will read The Humboldt Current… thanks for the tip. And the Travels of William Bartram is on my list now too.

Thanks again!

We are busy connecting community and kids with the idea of Citizen Science in Oregon along the Clackamas River. I thought I’d mention John Bartram and his son William Bartram, 1739-1823 and recommend your readers would enjoy “Travels of William Bartram” first published in 1791 but copies are still available today. The book was hailed as a work of literature and an accurate account of natural and cultural history. The book speaks to the Bartram men explorations of 400 miles of the St. John’s River in Florida from 1765-66. The elder Bartram had been appointed Botanist Royal in America by King George III. Bartram too was well acquainted with Franklin and Jefferson. Happy exploring!

In those days when citizen scientists might be gentlemen naturalists, Humboldt’s writings were wildly popular with not only the academics of the day but also with ordinary, literate citizens. What is fascinating about Humboldt’s work is that he constantly tried to see the connection of everything to each other in a Web of Life — a very modern view. To say he was ahead of his time is an understatement: he recognized ‘ecology’ before the word existed.

Although I am not yet finished reading it, I recommend Aaron Sachs book, _The Humboldt Current_, published by Viking in 2004. It tells of Humboldt and a similar story to Ikkatsu: That of men going off into the wild, natural world to gather data for Science.

Keep up the good work, Ken!
