Abstract
Most general chemistry and organic chemistry textbooks describe Friedrich Wohler's synthesis of urea as the moment when modern organic chemistry was born. We surveyed 35 modern and classic texts to learn what each noted of Wohler's work. These books do not agree about the exact nature of Wohler's experiment and its significance.
