The author‘s second book about primitive peoples. More of a travel story than his very successful first book “Naked and Primitive“, the book still contains a great deal of valuable ethnographic information. The author tells engagingly of the Papuan “dwarf‘ tribe Yali, as well as nature in the wild mountains and Jungles of Western Papua New Guinea. The author speaks vividly of the Joy and sulfering, both physical and psychological, that he underwent on his solo expedition. The reader is soon drawn in by the sheer adventure of the story, and is left with a feeling of a shared experience. Suitable for both young people and adults.
