In the 1830s, a young Yamana Indian boy was abducted from Tierra del Fuego and shipped to London. Renamed Jemmy Button, he was "educated" before returning home a year later on "The Beagle", accompanied by Charles Darwin. Thirty years later, Button was accused of leading a massacre that killed nearly everyone on board a missionary schooner. "Savage" is his fascinating story--one appalling outcome of the brutal imperialism of the day. Two 8-page photo inserts.
