Recovering Our Ancestors' Gardens: Indigenous Recipes and Guide to Diet and Fitness by Devon A. Mihesuah | Indigenous Studies

I love historical fiction and I love fantasy but I don’t always get a chance to read them meshed together. The Conductors did just that! There’s also mystery mixed in and a slight touch of romance. My only objection is that I wish the magic system was explained a little more!

I'm so pleased to invest in this amazing reference compilation! I'd been trying to piece together native alternatives to imported European plants for medicinal/edible use and magical correspondences myself ad hoc and been getting no where. This is exactly what I was looking for!

I loved reading through these little stories! They’re cute and read just like fairy tales should. The illustrations are just lovely as well.

I bought this book for my son because they do not educate the history of indigenous people in his school. I am glad we have books like this available to continue telling the history of our ancestors.

Amazing bookstore, prompt and great selection. You can tell they take pride in their love of books here!

I’m very pleased with my order and am excited to read them.

Absolutely love this online bookstore. The organization of titles is super helpful and the extra curricular posts, events, book clubs, etc is so refreshing. It's not just a bookstore, it's a choice to show up. Books were promptly delivered and the owner is so kind. I am happy to know that her hard work and passion helps support her family and I will choose this place any day over big box stores. Love it all!

Have a lots of interesting recipes can't wait wait to start trying making them. The history of the book is absolutely beautiful.

Can’t wait to learn more about how to care for the land around us and hopefully grow a better garden.

I cannot wait to incorporate what I learn into my herbal garden, harvesting, and processing.

Excited for this second book! I enjoy the writing and humor, while discussing historical truths happening in the world and within the main characters reality. I'm a full-time researcher and middle grade/YA books give me space to learn, read for fun, and rest my brain a little. I'm excited for this entire series, honestly!

Held by the Land is extremely well-written, striking a harmonious balance between Indigenous land knowledge and contemporary scientific language. This book is like a roadmap on how human beings can become a welcomed member of the ecosystem again, through exposure to land knowledge that is thousands of years old and how to harvest honorably and with respect for nature. As a biologist, this book aligns with but also transcends the scientific method and invites us to view nature as human beings once did before colonization. It is a love letter to our plant relatives and also an instruction manual on how to live well and view our surroundings. This book is showing me a path to wellness both spiritually and biologically through our ancestors’ medicine. I am so glad I got this book and can’t recommend it enough!

I love this serious, I find myself loling often at the writing and adorable characters. I am a full time professor and love reading and middle grades and YA books help rest my brain. This is a great addition to a young or older reader's collection.

I’m so excited about giving this set of books to my granddaughter. She loves books and reading and I know she will love having books with heroines that look like her.
