Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the extraordinary life of a 19th-century naturalist and explorer, a true polymath whose insatiable curiosity led him across continents and disciplines. Born in a suburb of Constantinople to a French father and a German mother of Greek origin, the author embarks on a captivating journey, tracing the subject's early life in the Mediterranean, his formative years in America, and his eventual return to the New World. Against the backdrop of a young and expanding America, the book explores the subject's encounters with prominent figures in early American science, his contributions to botany, zoology, and linguistics, and his struggles against academic prejudice and financial hardship. His travels through the wilderness of Kentucky, his attempts to establish a botanic garden, and his encounters with Native American cultures paint a vivid picture of a man driven by a passion for discovery and a deep connection with the natural world. The book delves into the subject's multifaceted personality, his entrepreneurial spirit, his controversial medical practices, and his unwavering belief in the power of knowledge. It offers a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of a scientific pioneer who, despite facing adversity and skepticism, left an indelible mark on the fields of natural history and exploration. This book's insights into the life and work of this remarkable figure shed light on the evolving landscape of science in early America and the enduring legacy of a man who dared to challenge convention and explore the uncharted territories of the natural world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
