Healing Plants: Medicine of the Florida Seminole Indians

This books has history interwoven with healing techniques. Wonderful book. The only problem is the photos are not in color as advertised. However, the scientific names aid in identification of the plants on internet search engines. It is worth the money in any case. Thank you to the native Americans who passed this wonderful knowledge down to us.

What a wonderful book. Besides preserving healing knowledge for future generations this book also gives insight into Seminole history and culture.I stumbled on this book at my library and then ordered one for my personal library. What a treasure. I hope I can meet Alice Micco Snow someday soon and have her sign my copy.

Excellent work, and very useful to me, as someone getting to know the culture and language of the Seminole and Miccosukee people.

Excellent history. Excellent descriptions of different payments. As a native Floridian I was hoping to adopt some of the medicinals, but most of the plants are in South Florida.

This is an excellent resource for those interested in the Seminole medicine/healing traditions. In fact, it was recommended by tribal members. Alice Micco Snow was a great and respected Seminole healer. It is fortunate that she has shared her knowledge and experience, and it is most fortunate for Ms. Stans that she was able to be involved in this sharing.

Bought to learn natural medicine of the people but the medicine is not much good without the songs and how to prepare.

excellent reference book. Especially like the references to native Seminole traditions and knowledge.arrived as anticipated and excellent condition as described.

Book tells a lot of history and doesn't go in depth of how to harvest and prepare for usage as I was hoping for
