Ishi in Two Worlds: A Biography of the Last Wild Indian in North America by Theodora Kroeber

4.0

Lovely biography of Ishi. I wish there weren't quite so many holes in this, eg no mention is made of the time Ishi spent at the PPIE, and I wish the part dedicated to Ishi after Oroville had represented a larger percentage of the whole - but it was an interesting and enjoyable read. I appreciated the attention paid to the source material - especially the acknowledgment that much of it was unreliable - as well as the discussion of departures from conclusions by those reviewing the topics prior to this.
