Nicholas Culpeper and the Mystery of the Philosopher's Stone...
The controversial research and publicspirited work of Nicholas Culpeper (16161654) English alchemist, astrologer, physician and free thinker continues to divide opinions to this day. The College of Physicians despise his healing texts in laymans English that challenge their monopoly on medical knowledge. Monarchists are wary of his outspoken opposition in the Civil War. But commoners and local healers praise his tireless determination to provide the poor directly with pharmaceutical information and treatments.Soon after his death, a secret manuscript is published under Culpepers name claiming his discovery of aurum potabile, the Philosophers Stone, the source of the Elixir of Life. The sudden appearance of the most soughtafter alchemical Holy Grail on the streets of London raises many questions, principally did Culpeper really discover the Philosophers Stone and who now stands to make a fortune from it?Culpepers friend and former colleague, Zachariah Jenkin, is commissioned by Culpepers patron to investigate the claims. Unsure who he can trust when everyone seems to have a stake, Zachariah now faces the challenge of discovering the truth, finding the secrets of the Philosophers Stone and protecting his dead friends legacy.This enthralling historical fiction by Dr Michael Noble dramatizes the story of Nicholas Culpepers short yet fruitful life, his studies and his contentious beliefs from the copious writings he left behind.
