Since the Mi’kmaq healing process begins with the gathering and preparation of medicines, Lacey takes us into swamps and bogs, the barrens and woods, to explore the habitats of plants with healing properties. He then illustrates each medicinal plant and describes its traditional use or uses. Whether one is hiking through a field listening for the sound of the “sacred plant,” the yellow rattle, exploring bogs in the hope of finding the elusive blue flag, or simply interested in the Mi’kmaq approach to health and healing,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eMi’kmaq Medicines\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewill prove a helpful and enjoyable companion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis new edition includes a fully revised text and a new preface from the author on current perspectives in Mi’kmaq medicines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLAURIE LACEY is an artist, writer, naturalist, nature mystic, and traditional plant and tree medicine maker.
