DOWNLOAD EBOOKRecently identified as a killer, tobacco has been the focus of health warnings, lawsuits, and political controversy. Yet many Native Americans continue to view tobacco-when used properly-as a life-affirming and sacramental substance that plays a significant role in Native creation myths and religious ceremonies. This definitive work presents the origins, history, and contemporary use (and misuse) of tobacco by Native Americans. It describes wild and domesticated tobacco species and how their cultivation and use may have led to the domestication of corn, potatoes, beans, and other food plants. It also analyzes many North American Indian practices and beliefs, including the concept that Tobacco is so powerful and sacred that the spirits themselves are addicted to it. The book presents medical data revealing the increasing rates of commercial tobacco use by Native youth and the rising rates of death among Native American elders from lung cancer, heart disease, and other tobacco-related illnesses. Finally, this volume argues for the preservation of traditional tobacco use in a limited, sacramental manner while criticizing the use of commercial tobacco. Contributors are: Mary J. Adair, Karen R. Adams, Carol B. Brandt, Linda Scott Cummings, Glenna Dean, Patricia Diaz-Romo, Jannifer W. Gish, Julia E. Hammett, Robert F. Hill, Richard G. Holloway, Christina M. Pego, Samuel Salinas Alvarez, Lawrence A Shorty, Glenn W. Solomon, Mollie Toll, Suzanne E. Victoria, Alexander von Garnet, Jonathan M. Samet, and Gail E. Wagner.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Smoking is a ritual central to the ceremonial and religious life of the native peoples of Canada and the United States. The pipes, in which the tobacco and other herbs were smoked, were therfore treated with great skill and ingenuity. Both through their beauty and widespread use they are the most representative artefacts of aboriginal America. This booklet discusses 100 pipes from the collections of the British Museum. They range in date from 100 BC to AD1900, from the Hopewell of Ohio to the Athabascans of the Northwest Territories. Particularly well represented are the Haida of British Columbia with fine early nineteenth-century argillite pipes; the Ojibwa and other peoples of the Great Lakes; and the Iroquois, Micmac and other peoples of the Eastern Woodlands. Most of the historical pipes date to the middle of the nineteenth century or before; these include a selection of pipe tomahawks with examples of the types used in the American War of Independence, the War of 1812, and traded by the Hudson's Bay Company."--Back cover.
