About this product

Product Information

This authoritative guide--based on the author's classic reference work, Indian Herbalogy of North America --is a portable illustrated companion for the professional and amateur herbalist alike. It provides detailed descriptions of 125 of the most useful medicinal plants commonly found in North America, along with directions for a range of uses, remedies for common ailments, and notes on the herbal traditions of other lands. Entries include staples of folk medicine such as echinacea and slippery elm as well as common kitchen herbs--such as parsley, thyme, and pepper--whose tonic and healing properties are less widely known.

    Euell Gibbons Would Be Pleased

    Ever think of getting back in touch with nature? Ditching the deadly big pharma prescriptions? Well, this is one source to help get us back in touch with "how to heal ourselves." Information is complete and accurate, so far as I've been able to ascertain (in comparing with other materials I own). My only criticism is that the book possess so few images of the herbs listed. Photographs and alternate formatting of benefits -- bullet points v. paragraph -- presented would make this a better field resource.

  • A Handbook of Native American Herbs,by Alma R. Hutchens

    This book was purchased on the internet as new. The book is to be an addition to my family library on Native American history and culture. I myself am a Mohawk/French Canadian Metis elder, living in Massachusetts. I like the book, because of the descriptions given, with each herb and the associated methods of using the herb. Even though I feel the book is OK, I find the black and white drawings of the herbs, leaves a person questioning just what they're looking at. This is a field guide and I feel the book needed to provide colored pictures of the plants and herbs, so that there'd be no mistaking the herb. There are herbs that can be closely related and confused with poisonous plants. So, if you make a mistake in identifing the plant or herb, it could cost you your life. For ...

  • Herbs

    Great book, lacking a bit on illustrations but descriptions are accurate. You have to go into the field with this in hand. I was able to identify alfalfa, Juniper, sage, mint, dandelion, oak, pine, aloe, red clover, sunflower, parsley, thyme, and catnip. The picture is dandelion root, sage, and mint
