Publisher's Synopsis
I'm sorry, but there seems to be some confusion. ""The Signature of All Things"" is actually a novel written by Elizabeth Gilbert, and not by Jacob Boehme. This book tells the story of Alma Whittaker, a brilliant botanist who is born into a wealthy family in Philadelphia in the early 1800s. Her father, Henry Whittaker, made his fortune through his successful plant trading business and Alma inherits his love for botany.Alma spends her life studying plants and their properties, and the novel follows her journey as she travels the world in search of new specimens and knowledge. Along the way, she meets a number of interesting characters, including a Tahitian man named Ambrose Pike, who becomes her close friend and confidant.The novel is a sweeping historical epic that explores themes of science, religion, and the search for meaning in life. It is a beautifully written and deeply moving story that will stay with readers long after they have finished reading it.THIS 220 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Signature of all Things; of the Supersensual Life; of Heaven and Hell; Discourse Between Two Souls, by Jacob Boehme.
