This
book is a compendium of knowledge on Seminole herbal medicine
and ancient healing practices, passed down orally to Alice Snow
from generations of her Native American ancestors. An overview
of Seminole history and native medicine places the healing practices
in their cultural context and describes actual treatments.
Charts
with plant names in Creek, Mikasuki and English and a list of
plant properties with their common and botanical names offer easy
reference. Color photos provide clear illustrations of many of
the plants.
