I also loved this book by Theodora Kroeber...I read it so very many years ago, but have always kept it over the years...This particular book, is an old, hard bound book, with lots of pictures, taken of Ishi at the museum, and especially many shots taken when Ishi took Kroeber and I think Dr. Pope, out into the more wild areas, where they camped, and Ishi showed them his native skills at hunting, and such....

Thanks for this reminder of that book...I need to go look for it now, among all the books I have kept over time...its worth a reread...

Yes, my copy is an old one one too, that I was lucky to get in some second hand book store years ago. I have it sitting out where I can often just look at the cover as I'm walking by, and it reminds me again of what a remarkable story it is. I love the old photos in it, and sometimes wonder what Ishi thought of it all.
