This book is like an archaeologist's reconstruction of a bead necklace from which some pieces are scattered. Theodora Kroeber puts together two necklaces: first, the story of a tribe that survived undisturbed for hundreds of years. The second necklace is the story of Ishi's adjustment to the trolley-world of San Francisco--proof, as the author says, that Stone Age man and modern man are essentially alike.
