In late-April, 1953, Wallace Landry began organizing an expedition to New Guinea. His goal was to find uncontacted peoples. With nothing but the best of intentions and an adventurous spirit, the Landry party set off in May. Their outlook was positive. But the expedition was doomed from the start: unreliable guides, rigorous conditions, relentless leeches, mosquitos and hostile natives. The Landry party soon found themselves on their own, fighting for their lives. This remarkable firsthand account of physical and emotional turmoil in the rainforest of New Guinea brings you along, every step of the way. Here, for the first time, is the complete and unabridged transcription of Landry's personal journal, recovered in 1967.
