About this book

Robert W. Williamson's record of a solitary expedition to British New Guinea in 1910 describes the Mafulu, a mountain people whom few white men had visited. He crossed the Mekeo and Kuni districts on the way, travelling at times with Father Egedi, and relied on Father Clauser of the Catholic Mission of the Sacred Heart at Mafulu as his interpreter.

The book was published in 1912 by Macmillan, with a map, illustrations and an introduction by the anthropologist A. C. Haddon. Williamson admits that a first study of this kind is likely to contain errors.
