Another ethnobotanical treasure!

By Randy J. Mercurio on September 29, 2008

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase

An account of the edible wild plants used by the Interior Native Americans of British Columbia as well as some of their history and culture. It covers some general harvesting, preparation, seasonal plant use and detailed accounts of specific plants which have a brief description, habitat, distribution in B.C., and "Indian" use. Although the plants covered are for a particular area the information contained is invaluable for the serious forager. Because you soon realize that this information can be utilized for species in the same genera found in the eastern U.S. (i.e. Lilium, Pinus, Prunus, Vaccinium) and collection/preparation techniques may be applicable to other plants. Covers lichens, mushrooms & fungi, confiers, mono & dicots. Lots of color pictures, 4 appendicies: sporadically used plants by interior people, plants of limited use by interior people, non-native food plants and poisonous or inedible plants. Note that some plant species are repeated in Part 2 from Part 1. Still a great reference book for the gatherer of wild edibles!

Food Plants of the Okanogan peoples

By Ethel Lindauer on September 16, 2013

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase

An excellent work! I was pleased to find it as it is the best book I have seen on this subject. I teach nselxcin, the Salish language of the Okanogan people and this book will be very helpful when introducing students to the wide variety of plants we have in this area and their uses. Dr. Ethel Lindauer
