However, with the New Herball of William Turner we reach the first real landmark in English botanical literature. William Turner (c.1510-68), known as 'the Father of English botany', was the first English botanist who studied plants scientifically and his work marks a new era in the history of science in England. His major and only illustrated work was the above-mentioned New Herball, the first part of which was published in London in 1551. Its figures were taken from Fuchs. http://www.users.dircon.co.uk/~wheldwes/bot.html http://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/h/hemind22a-l.jpghttp://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/h/hemind22.html http://www.botanical-online.com/alcaloidescannabis.gifhttp://www.botanical-online.com/alcaloidescannabiscatala.htm http://www.panteek.com/Blackwell/thumbs/bla332b.jpg http://www.panteek.com/Blackwell/thumbs/bla322.jpghttp://www.panteek.com/Blackwell/index5.htmFern Prints from Elisabeth Blackwell 1757 http://www.tssphoto.com/visuallanguage/cds/images/VL07/comps/21_CANNA.jpgdescription: Antique Botanical Illustration of Cannabis (hand-colored copper engraving), 1756 http://www.tssphoto.com/visuallanguage/cds/preview/21_CANNA.html
