Spirit of the Harvest: North American Indian Cooking
Spirit of the Harvest: North American Indian Cooking: member book reviews
southerncooker from Boomer, NC
This book is filled with information about the foods the Native Americans across the US ate and used in ceremonies. The recipes included are ones that you can make today. There are traditional dishes from tribes such as Cherokee, Chippewa, Navajo, Sioux, Mohegan, Iroquois, Comanche, Hopi, and many others.
Also included in the beautiful, artfully arranged photos of some of the recipes are an array of historic Indian artifacts. This book is equally fun to look at and read as it is to cook from. There is a map in the beginning to show you where each of the tribes was located and the foods they ate most, grew or harvested.
If you are interested in Native American food and history, I think you would enjoy this book.
