Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Explorations and Adventures in New Guinea
Under many difficulties and disadvantages. Many phases of native life are presented; also an impartial and unbiassed account of the work performed by the London Missionary Society in Southern New Guinea. These are the main features of a work which I make no apology for placing before the British public. Should the perusal weary any who read these pages, it may be some satisfaction to them to re?ect that the weariness of the perusal cannot equal that so often felt by the author in the prosecution of the explorations these chapters record.
