Joseph Dalton Hooker:
1817-1911: British, botanist, artist, doctor
Hooker’s three year voyage to the Antarctic was only the first
of many
expeditions to various parts of the world. His botanical collections on
the voyage
with Sir James Clark Ross, and later in India, Nepal, Morocco and North
America established him as one of the 19th century’s most distinguished
natural
scientists. He was a great friend of Charles Darwin.
