Description

<DIV>This is the first book of its kind to bring forward the rich tradition of wild rice in Michigan and its importance to the Anishinaabek people who live there. <I>Manoomin: The Story of Wild Rice in Michigan</I> focuses on the history, culture, biology, economics, and spirituality surrounding this sacred plant.

The story travels through time from the days before European colonization and winds its way forward in and out of the logging and industrialization eras.

It weaves between the worlds of the Anishinaabek and the colonizers, contrasting their different perspectives and divergent relationships with Manoomin.

Barton discusses historic wild rice beds that once existed in Michigan, why many disappeared, and the efforts of tribal and nontribal people with a common goal of restoring and protecting Manoomin across the landscape.</DIV>
