There is barely any analysis or narrative. After a tedious introduction that didn't give much insight into how Native Americans used herbs, the author presents the various native woodland plants in a format like most field guides. After each plant, she lists historical quotes about the herbs and puts tribal names in caps. There are some great quotes. It's a pretty cool reference, and as a lover of native plants, I will keep it. However, I really wanted more on how different tribes used the herbs in everyday life. If it were an e-book or in some digital format, it would be much more useful, because you could search it easily. The index only lists plant names, not tribal names. The Peterson Field Guide is much more to the point and better edited. I'm bummed. Based on the title and reviews, I was expecting an historical, ethnobotanical account of native plant use by Natives. You can get some of that information out after a lot of work and doing your own analysis.*** OK, after having this book for a few weeks, I'm really glad I kept it. It's an amazing reference for identifying and learning about woodland plants. Also, the line drawings are really nice for identification. The author put a tremendous amount of work into this book, and I've been enjoying it. Some of the historical quotes are hilarious. Also, as a note, this is not intended as a guide to making herbal remedies or using native plants as herbal remedies. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Mislead *by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2022* Blah blah ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars There is no other book like this!

I first came across it at the University of British Columbia bookstoer back in 1981 but had failed to obtain a copy of it for my own sake. The book is a profound compendium of ethno-botanical knowledge, thoroughly researched. The book also provides hundreds of references dating back as far as the 16th century. I remembered using quotes and notes from this book for an ethnobotanical presentation I gave in a 4th year biology course at university. My prof. a biochemist, coincidentally had a copy of it his office library. This book is not for the superficial person who wants pretty pictures and recipes. It is for those who really have a serious interest in nature, plants, and human history of their use, and the time to read. It is tedious reading, but fascinating! What makes this book particularly relevant and valuable to me is that is focuses on plant usage by amerindians and settlers in Eastern North America and Canada. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14735198-medicinal-and-other-uses-of-north-american-plants-a-historical](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14735198-medicinal-and-other-uses-of-north-american-plants-a-historical) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
