Contacts Between Iroquois Herbalism And Colonial Medicine is a book written by William N. Fenton that explores the interactions between Iroquois herbalism and colonial medicine. The book delves into the ways in which the Iroquois people utilized various plants and herbs for medicinal purposes, and how their knowledge and practices were integrated into the colonial medical system. Fenton also examines the ways in which colonial medicine influenced Iroquois herbalism, and how the two systems of healing coexisted and interacted over time. Through a combination of historical research and firsthand accounts, Contacts Between Iroquois Herbalism And Colonial Medicine offers a unique perspective on the intersection of traditional and modern medicine in North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
