About this title

Synopsis

Alexander von Humboldt was a towering figure of his time - scientist, explorer, and polymath, imbued with Enlightenment ideas - and he left an impact on the intellectual life of 19th century America. This work traces Humboldt's legacy by focusing not only on the man himself but on the lives of other individuals who took their lead from him.
