Waselkov and Braund have given scholars and fans of Bartram an invaluable source of his writing on the southeastern Indians and the tools and information with which to interpret and use his work."-American Indian Culture and Research Journal "William Bartram on the Southeastern Indians is essential reading for anyone interested in the Native American Southeast. . . . As a primary source, the book is an invaluable collection of information; as a scholarly work, it is unparalleled in its informed presentation and critical review of Bartram's writings."-North Carolina Historical Review

      The statues of Savannah's Monument Square are silent. The statue of the solemn girl in Bonaventure Cemetery -- made famous in John Berendt's blockbuster book, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil -- can't speak. Only Savannah's literary monuments can give voice to the diverse history of one of America's greatest cities; one that has for centuries inspired fascination worldwide.
