Why Is Bertram Whittier Wells Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Bertram Whittier Wells was an American botanist and ecologist active in North Carolina. His most influential work was Natural Gardens of North Carolina . During his long and active life, B. W. Wells was keenly interested in the study and preservation of North Carolina's unique landscape. He spent time studying the Big Savannah in North Carolina's Pender County, a spot he made famous in his publications on "natural gardens." Wells also, unsuccessfully, worked to save the Big Savannah from development. In 2002, a similar ecological site was dedicated to Wells's memory. Wells's concern for the environment was evidenced in his teaching and work as the head of North Carolina State College's Botany Department, his writing, and his personal involvement in botanical and environmental associations. James R. Troyer rightly titled his book about Wells Nature's Champion.
