DOWNLOAD EBOOKA New Herball, originally published in three parts during the second half of the sixteenth century, was the first English herbal with any pretensions to scientific status. As such, it provided a landmark in the history of botany and herbalism, breaking new ground in its accuracy of observation and its scientific thoroughness. For the first time since its original publication, the entire Herball is now available in a facsimile edition which faithfully reproduces the beautiful sixteenth-century black-letter text and woodcut illustrations. To aid the twentieth-century reader, a modernised transcript, together with keyed-in notes, a glossary of unfamiliar terms and comprehensive indexes have been provided. Biographical information on this influential physician, naturalist and cleric is also included to give an indication of his contribution to sixteenth-century English history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Names of Herbes Turner often includes several different plants under the same head ing; but I have thought this plan the easiest for facilitating refer ence A few blanks will be found in the second column; they indicate that I have been unable to ascertain satisfactorily the modern name of the plants to which Turner alludes. The third part is an index, similar to that in the Dictionary of English plant-names, in which the modern Latin names of the plants are given in alpha. Botical order, followed by the various English ones by which they are mentioned in the body of the work. In this way I hope I have rendered the information contained in the Names of Herbes available for the use of all who may wish to obtain it.
