Two Years Among New Guinea Cannibals
Antwerp Edgar Pratt and Henry Pratt
Naturalist Antwerp Pratt spent two years collecting butterflies and birds in the little-known interior of New Guinea, among peoples few outsiders had met. His account records rainforest, rare specimens, and the challenges of the deep tropics. Adventurous and observant. Push inland into New Guinea's wild highlands with a collector.
