Excerpt from The Ways of the South Sea Savage: A Record of Travel Observation Amongst the Savages of the Solomon Islands Primitive Coast Mountain Peoples of New Guinea The study of the more primitive races of mankind is ever a fascinating one, and no part of the globe now Offers greater facilities for its enjoyment than do the islands of the south-west Pacific and New Guinea; indeed New Guinea may almost be regarded as the last stronghold of the savage; for, though it has had many white visitors and is under the government of European powers, and though much has been Observed and recorded concerning the people Of some Of its coast-lines and the low-lying plains behind them, a great part Of its mountainous interior still remains a sealed book, which no man has yet attempted to open and read.
