Patrick Blair, Surgeon Apothecary, Dundee, Scotland
"This booklet comprises two papers on an eminent scientist of the late 17th and early 18th century. Patrick Blair practiced as a surgeon apothecary at a time when herbal remedies were the apothecary's medicines and thus he demonstrated an expert knowledge of the plants growing in and around Strathmore. He contributed significantly to the recording and identification of these in this area. He created a botanical garden in Dundee, it being the third such in Britain. His dissection of an elephant that died between Broughty Ferry and Dundee won him acclaim in scientific circles of his time. In the course of events this was to save his life after being condemned as a Jacobite rebel of the 1715 Rising. The first part is a reproduction of a paper presented in 1907 by A.P. Stevenson. The second part comprises Editorial notes to correctly identify the subject in the form of a family historian's brief perspective of Patrick Blair written on the centenary of the first"--P.
