Tending the Wild: Native American Knowledge and the Management of California's Natural Resources
M. Kat AndersonMarvelously detailed & beautifully written, Tending the Wild is an unparalleled examination of Native American knowledge and uses of California's natural resources that reshapes our understanding of native cultures & shows how we might begin to use their knowledge in our own conservation efforts. M. Kat Anderson presents a wealth of information on native land management practices gleaned in part from interviews & correspondence with Native Americans who recall what their grandparents told them about how & when areas were burned, which plants were eaten & which were used for basketry, & how plants were tended.
The complex picture that emerges from this and other historical source material dispels the hunter-gatherer stereotype long perpetuated in anthropological & historical literature. We come to see California's indigenous people as active agents of environmental change & stewardship. Tending the Wild persuasively argues that this traditional ecological knowledge is essential if we are to successfully meet the challenge of living sustainably.
