During the 1700 and 1800's, European explorers and scientists were drawn to the New World by the reports of exotic native people and unusual plants and animals. Fortunately, some of the explorers kept journals, which provide us with first hand accounts of the relatively unspoiled wilderness of young America and which include descriptions of indigenous flora and fauna and geographic features and, also, depictions of the cultures of the original human inhabitants. There are a number of noteworthy accounts within Special Collections and the general collection of the National Agricultural Library.
