Part of Wilson Duff fonds
This file contains correspondences from Nancy Turner to Wilson Duff. A letter and accompanying manuscript concern Turner's text "Bella Coola Ethnobotany", which was drafted for publication in Syesis. The publication provides the traditional names, use and preparation methods, and oral history notes for 135 plants used by the Nuxalk people.
A small greeting card with a print of totems poles painted by A. Fairbairn on the cover includes a message from Turner that details names of people she met at Skidegate and Masset who provided ethnobotanical information for her research.
