First published in Paris in 1804 Michaux's classic narrative relates his travels west of the Allegheny Mountains. The author is most famous as a botanist and author of North American Sylva. His 1800-mile journey began when he in the company of Jean Chaptal sailed for America and arrived at Charleston South Carolina October 9 1801. He had been instructed to close down a nursery founded by his father Andrew Michaux at Charleston for economic reasons and he sent back to France the seedlings he thought worthy of cultivation. In the spring of 1802 he began travels in other parts of the United States before returning to France at the end of 1803 and organizing the shipments of plants and seeds he sent back. In this travelogue Michaux comments on the various botanical specimens he observes as well as wildlife commerce viticulture in Kentucky Cherokees in Tennessee and much more.
