About this title

Synopsis

Tis Mal Crow studied the medicinal use of plants and traditional native root doctoring techniques from childhood. He shared his knowledge and insights on how to gather herbs respectfully and use them to make tinctures, teas, liniments, oils, lotions and salves for medicinal use. Twenty-two Eastern Woodland plants are profiled and identified by their doctrine of signature, which ailments respond to their treatment, and what type of application works best. The importance of responsible harvesting is stressed, as a number of wild medicinal plants face extinction due to overharvesting.
