"Sean Sherman’s work, anchored by his award-winning Minneapolis restaurant Owamni and his nonprofit NATIFS, positions Indigenous foodways as both homage and a pathway forward: Owamni’s mission to revive and document North American Indigenous cuisine underpins Turtle Island’s regionally structured chapters, evocative landscape descriptions, and historical context that aim less at making every recipe cookable than at helping readers view where they live through an Indigenous lens." - Bettina Makalintal
