Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This book describes the traditional Aboriginal uses of more than 200 plants from Canada's boreal forest. It is the result of ethnobotanical fieldwork in 29 communities across the boreal forest region of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. Natural resources of the boreal forest have always been essential to the dietary, medical, economic, and spiritual well-being of the area's First Nation people, but until now much of their traditional environmental knowledge has remained unrecorded and at risk of being lost. The entries and accompanying photographs are arranged according to the plant family and include information on physical descriptions, habitat, uses for food, technology, medicine, and potential economic use. The book also includes an explanation of the research approach, a literature review, and an overview of the ecological and cultural background of the area.
