DJ has rubbing, creasing, bumping, scuffing, crinkling, few closed tears; in a mylar cover. Brick colored end papers . Bright, beautiful illustrations by Susan L. Roth. Pages are clean and tight. Pages not numbered; 30 pages. " In 1911, when a lone California Indian walked out of hiding in the hills, ethnographers and anthropologists had one chance to study the culture of the Yahi people.
