I am not sure if I am in the correct place but I have a question. I am looking for the name of a SF Book I read in the late 50's or early 60's. I do not recall much about the book. It was one of those after a disaster to the human race books. The main person had a name like IS, IK or ID or I think a two letter name. One think that I recall is that when he was older he was suprised that the younger generation was using pennies to make arrow heads for their bows. Thanks for any help.

It would be a very good idea to edit out your E-Mail address above as there are many Bots roaming the Internet and if you don't remove it quickly you are likely to be overrun by Spam Mail.

It's one of the disadvantages of being a Public Forum.

I think the book you are referring to is "Earth Abides" by George Stewart. It was written back in the 40's. The main character is an indian named Ish.
