Ishi in Two Worlds

The audiobook tells the compelling life story of Ishi, the last Yahi Indian and the sole survivor of his tribe, who emerged into the 20th century on August 29, 1911, in Oroville, California. After enduring unimaginable hardship, Ishi was discovered and later identified by an anthropologist, leading to a new life in San Francisco under the care of Professor T. T. Waterman and the University of California's Museum of Anthropology. His journey offers a unique perspective on North American anthropology and the tragic history of his people.
