Plains dwellers will find here, conveniently described, the uses which Plains Indians made of the wild plants they collected and those they cultivated for food, clothing, medicine, and ornamentation; many of these uses are applicable today. Students of the American Indian will discover the place plants held in the symbolic system of the Plains Indians and an image of a culture that had evolved in harmony with its environment.
