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

Water for a Thirsty Soul
Format: Kindle
Dr. Ana's books are always such a pleasure to read. They are filled with divine knowledge and revelation and this book is no exception...it is like water for a thirsty soul. It gives a divine perspective to the spiritual reality that we have devalued so much in exchange for the comfort of a world we have built for our own comfort.
This book offers a lot to process and it has left me wanting more...particularly in the area of connecting and living from our celestial body.

Looks good works great
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
This paper towel holder is simple, sturdy, and works exactly as it should. It holds the roll securely and makes it easy to tear off sheets with one hand. The design is clean and attractive, so it looks great on the countertop without taking up too much space. No assemble required and a great value overall.

Functional and beautiful!
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Silver
This towel holder is a fantastic find! It is always great when a product exceeds your expectations and this towel holder is exactly that. At first, I was not sure if the price was worth it but when I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the product. It is solid and well made with a heavy base that makes pulling paper towels with one hand a breeze. The mandrel is thick and provides excellent rotational ability. Overall A+. I highly recommend spending a few extra bucks on a functional piece that enhances the overall appearance of a kitchen.

This is a nice paper towel holder. I keep it on my counter and it looks great. Its easy to use although I haven't tried it one handed. I like it and I think it was a good price. It was very heavy and works great.
