Book Synopsis The Linnaeus Apostles: Introduction by : Lars Hansen
Book excerpt: During the 18th century the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus inspired 17 of his scholars to travel to the far corners of the earth to document local nature and culture. Their travels covered all the continents, and they came to be known as the Linnaeus Apostles. Some of their journals have now been made available for the first time.
