AMERICAN LITERATURE.

539

Among American travellers of the last century, we may name JOHN BARTRAM (1701-1777), who described East Florida; JOHN WOOLMAN (1720-1772), a Quaker, in whose Journal of a Tour in England Charles Lamb delighted; JONAthan Carver (1732-1780), who explored the interior of North America, trying to reach the Pacific; and JOHN LEDYARD (1751-1789), who travelled both in frozen Siberia and burning Africa, dying at Cairo.

TIMOTHY FLINT, the novelist (1780–1840) contributed to this branch of American literature The Geography and History of the Mississippi Valley-HENRY SCHOOLCRAFT (born 1793), Tours in Missouri, Arkansas, and the Copper Region of Lake Superior, besides various important works upon the Red Race in America and CHARLES WILKES, of the United States Navy, A Narrative of the United States Exploring Expedition, giving an account of travels in Chili, Peru, and the South Seas.

CALEB CUSHING's Reminiscences of Spain; GEORGE CHEEVER'S Pilgrim in the Shadow of Mont Blanc and Pilgrim in the Shadow of the Jungfrau; BAYARD TAYLOR's Sketches in the East; J. T. HEADLEY'S Letters from Italy, the Alps, and the Rhine, are among the most readable books of late American travel.
