Produktinformationen "Edible Wild Plants of the Prairie"
"For some 10,000 years, the Indigenous peoples of the Great Plains regarded edible native plants as an important source of food. Not only did plants provide sustenance during times of scarcity, but they also added variety to what otherwise would have been a monotonous diet of game. The use of native plants as food sharply declined when white settlers arrived and imposed their own culture with its differing notions of what was fit to eat. The biggest change with this new edition is that line drawings have been replaced with color photographs that will assist foragers in identifying edible plants and allow the book to compete more successfully with other foraging guides. What else is new? A completely revised introduction Some new species; some removed Language that honors the cultures from which the plants came and a recognition that Native people's food traditions did not die out in the nineteenth century"-- Provided by publisher
