Field Notebook

Richard Evans Schultes was an eminent ethnobotanist who spent years studying the traditional plant knowledge of indigenous peoples in Central and South America. This field notebook, written during Schultes' time in Oaxaca, Mexico in 1938, provides a fascinating insight into his research process and the knowledge he gathered from interactions with local healers. Anyone interested in ethnobotany, anthropology, or indigenous cultures will find this book to be a treasure trove of information.
