As medicine was advancing relatively slowly at the time, the Pharmacopoeia of 1915 has been taken as a measure of the position reached at the end of the 19th century. The documents on the Manchester Hospitals Pharmacopoeia and Wesley's Primitive Physic have been rendered into pdf documents.

John Wesley's 'Primitive Physic'
My version is the fourth edition of Wesley's book. It was first published in 1747 with further editions in 1755, 1760 and 1780. The work was much plagiarised and reprinted in the late 18th and early 19th centuries; my copy was printed in 1847. Two missing pages from the preface of my addition were kindly provided for me from another copy by Mrs. Jackie Williams. The document has been prepared using optical character recognition. A small amount of reformatting has been necessary. References to the abstract of Dr. Tissot have been eliminated as this is not included in my edition.
