The life story of Ishi, the last Yahi Indian, lone survivor of an exterminated tribe, is unique in the annals of North American anthropology. Ishi stumbled into the 20th century on the morning of August 29, 1911, when, desperate with hunger and terrified of the white murderers of his family, he was found in the corral of a slaughterhouse near Oroville, California.

A most treasured story of a pure human
Revisado: 11-25-22
Read this in print many years ago. I’m still moved by it. For some, the exquisite details of the unimaginable evil of the casual evil of the Yahi extermination may be tedious or discomforting, but they are a very necessary chronicle of a very real evil done against these innocent people. Against this backdrop, Ishi’s beautiful character and personality contrasts so vividly.
I recommend this book to any curious enough to explore our present humanity, the recent past of America’s INhumanity, or the realities of neolithic life, as Ishi lived it, up until the modern age
