William Turner's A New Herball, originally published during the second half of the sixteenth century, was the first English herbal (treatise on herbs and plants) 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 that faithfully reproduces the beautiful sixteenth century black-letter text and woodcut illustrations. To aid the twentieth century reader, a modernized transcript, together with keyed-in notes, a glossary of unfamiliar terms and comprehensive indexes have been provided. Biographical information is also included to give an indication of Turner's contribution to sixteenth-century English history. The Herball originally appeared in three parts: Part I (1551) forms the first volume of this edition and Part II (1562) and Part III (1568) form the second volume.

In this compelling book—mysteriously suppressed on its initial publication—former FBI agent William Turner and investigative reporter Jonn Christian expose convincing evidence that Sirhan did not act alone. Based on more than ten years of intensive research, Turner and Christian raise serious questions about RFK’s murder: •What was the virtually apolitical Sirhan’s motive? •Why, if Sirhan was standing in front of his victim, were the fatal wounds in the back of Kennedy’s head? •Why were there too many spent bullets (some the wrong size) for Sirhan’s gun? •Did the LAPD discredit witnesses, try to make them alter their stories, and destroy key records? •Was Sirhan, in fact, a “Manchurian Candidate,” programmed through hypnosis either to kill Kennedy or divert attention while others did the job? The Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy makes the case that the murder of RFK, and the subsequent police and government investigations, bear all the hallmarks of the conspiracy surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy and the resulting Warren Commission. It is a fascinating and chilling reexamination of the tragic events that undoubtedly changed the course of American history.
