Authentic copy of the original 1814 Culpeper print.
... the Book the Medical Establishment Hated!
 
In 1814, if you wanted to heal yourself without a "fancy" doctor, this was your Bible. We are thrilled to offer this rare 1814 Edition - Culpeper’s Complete Herbal which is reprinted from his written works in the English Physician 1653. Culpeper wasn't just a herbalist - he was a radical who wanted to take medical knowledge away from the "elite" and give it to the people.
 
Culpeper didn’t hold back. In his "Epistle to the Reader," he calls out other doctors as "parrots" and warns against "dangerous" counterfeit books. He believed medicine belonged to the people, guided by "Dr. Reason and Dr. Experience." 
 
This text features:
Over 400 botanical engravings
Includes his "Last Legacy" to his wife—50 of his most private, effective recipes.
The "Occult Qualities" of 400+ plants and how the stars govern your health.
Rules for compounding medicine according to the "System of Nature"
 
This 1814 edition of his Complete Herbal isn't just a plant guide—it’s a manual for Astrological Medicine. Culpeper believed that to cure a disease of Mars, you needed a plant of Venus.
