One of the best in my collection
Another book you don't loan out, you'll miss having it for reference.
It lists recipes for ailments, and companies where you can purchase the items needed in the mixes.
I had to buy more than one, one for loans, one for keeps.
The best advice is also given in this book, just because one mix worked for another, it may not be the same for you. We are all different, and so are the many different species of plants. So it doesn't just give you one recipe for one ailment, unlike so many other herbal books.

Good Book
This is a good book for beginners that teaches the basics of arrow making the traditional way. It also offers alternative ways using modern tools. If you are looking for the way a specific tribe/people made arrows then further research will be required as with any book on this subject. It does however give some detailed information on the arrow crafting techniques of some plains Indians.

The Healing Spirit
A magnificent compendium of Native American cures and treatments, which are just the thing unless you are actually, you know, sick.
