Documents a total of 44,691 ways that Native Americans use 4,029 plants. More than half of these practices are medicinal, but the breadth of their plant knowledge is shown by the listings for food, fibers, and dyes, as well as a host of other uses (from ceremonial and magical to cleaning and insecticidal). A lengthy introductory section provides a history of how the information was compiled and sorted, as well as an overview of the plants detailed in the Catalog of Plants (which is arranged alphabetically by the scientific name of the plant). Contains extensive indexes arranged by tribe, usage, and common names. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
