Georgian botanical and herbal medicine
John Hill
1714 – 1775
Sir John Hill was an English apothecary, botanist, and prolific author who published The Family Herbal (1755), a practical guide to English medicinal plants and their therapeutic uses. A polymath who bridged natural philosophy and popular medicine, Hill's herbal writing placed him at the intersection of empirical botany and folk healing traditions that informed later esoteric herbalism.
