“Morris West writes of this book: I have known the author of this book for nearly twenty years.  For the past seven years I have watched his progressive involvement in the drama of Papua and New Guinea – a drama of primitive peoples being thrust by the swiftly mounting pressures of history out of their hidden valleys into the life of the twentieth century.”
