John Heinerman traces the deep roots of herbal medicine in early Mormon history, from the Smith family's distrust of frontier doctors to the Thomsonian botanical movement embraced by Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and the Nauvoo Saints. Drawing on journals, sermons, and Church archives, the book examines how revelation, the Word of Wisdom, and faith in the laying on of hands shaped Latter-day Saint attitudes toward healing. It closes with a practical herb table describing traditional remedies still relevant to health-minded readers today.
Perfect for an adult Latter-day Saint interested in Church history and natural/herbal health who enjoys exploring the faith practices of the early Saints.
