Book Details
First Sentence
"There is no machine on earth so potent, yet so simple and elegant, as the two sticks of the Native American fire drill; a hearth piece, the female element-according to Ishi, who emerged in 1911 from forty years of concealment in the California bush as the last "wild Indian" of North America- and the drill itself, an approximately 1/2-inch by 2-foot-long rod, the male element or "man piece.""
