Carolyn Sheffield Shows us Griffiths and Lange's Field Book

In this short video, Carolyn Sheffield, Project Manager of the Field Book Project at the Smithsonian, talks to us about the field notebooks of Griffiths and Lange. They worked for the USDA documenting foraging, soil quality, and much more. In this field book, they show images of Native American culture, including a sweat lodge. The accompanying story to this video is posted on my blog at http://hereandthere123.blogspot.com. Copyright 2011, Debra Schiff.
