Ishi in Three Centuries brings together a range of insightful and unsettling perspectives and the latest research to enrich and personalize our understanding of one of the most famous Native Americans of the modern era--Ishi, the last Yahi. After decades of concealment from genocidal attacks on his people in California, Ishi (ca. 1860-1916) came out of hiding in 1911 and lived the last five years of his life in the University of California Anthropological Museum in San Francisco. Contributors to this volume illuminate Ishi the person, his relationship to anthropologist A. L. Kroeber and others, his Yahi world, and his enduring and evolving legacy for the twenty-first century. Ishi in Three Centuries features recent analytic translations of Ishi's stories, new information on his language, craft skills, and his personal life in San Francisco, with reminiscences of those who knew him and A. L. Kroeber. Multiple sides of the repatriation controversy are showcased and given equal weight. Especially valuable are discussions by Native American writers and artists, including Gerald Vizenor, Louis Owens, and Frank Tuttle, of how Ishi continues to inspire the creative imagination of American Indians.Binding Type: Paperback

Exactly what I was looking for
Color: Coffee
I feel like I'm pretty particular about a lot of things I buy, which can lead me on a never-ending search. I recently purchased this bag, and it has quickly become my favorite accessory! The design is both elegant and practical, making it perfect for any occasion. The exterior is crafted from high-quality, durable material that not only looks luxurious but also stands up to daily use.
The interior is spacious and well-organized, with multiple compartments that make it easy to keep all my essentials in order. One of the standout features is the comfortable, adjustable strap, which allows me to wear the bag as a shoulder bag or crossbody, depending on my needs. The hardware is sturdy and adds a touch of sophistication to the overall look.
The handbag is also incredibly versatile. Its classic design pairs well with both casual and formal outfits, making it a great addition to any wardrobe. Plus, the price is very reasonable for the quality and style it offers. Overall, this handbag has exceeded my expectations. It’s stylish, functional, and well-made, offering excellent value for money. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and fashionable handbag!

Classic style and great size
Color: Black, Color: Black
The size and style of this bag are exactly what I was looking for — something polished enough for meetings, school conferences, and other business-type occasions. I’m 5'2", and the proportions work really well for my frame.
I like the classic design and the gold hardware — it looks stylish without being flashy. The quality seems good so far, but I am a little nervous about the strap brackets since I saw other reviewers mention issues with them breaking. Hopefully, that won’t be a problem.
The only downside for me is the three main sections inside. The bag already has plenty of pockets, so having three large compartments makes it a bit harder to remember where I put things. It just takes a little more digging around than I’d prefer.
Overall, it’s a beautiful, structured handbag that feels elegant and professional for the price.
