The first biography of one of Georgian England's most notorious figures, who thrived on scandal, fracas, and the cultivation of notoriety. Despite this he managed to make contributions to diverse fields, including botany, geology, literature, medicine and the professionalization of science, whose value has stood the test of time. Hill appears here in the company of other illuminati such as Samuel Johnson, Henry Fielding, Laurence Sterne, Oliver Goldsmith, Christopher Smart, Linnaeus, Haller and the Fellows of the Royal Society.

George Rousseau isa member of the Faculty of Modern History at Oxford University and Co-Director of the Oxford University Centre for the History of Childhood.
