Reverend John Bachman (1790-1874) was an accomplished naturalist as well as an outspoken advocate for civil rights. While researching “The Signature of All Things” I became fascinated by these men of the cloth who were also men of nature. Before the great schism that Darwinism brought forth between religion and science, there were many such figures as Bachman.
