From its steamy, mosquito-infested swamps to its high fertile valleys and mist-enshrouded peaks, New Guinea presents 300,000 square miles of highly diversified terrain with 2,000,000 needy but fascinating tribal people. This land is a perilous paradise with minimum of comfort and maximum of challenge. Especially featured in this book are a group of missionaries who are doing humanitarian work, often under difficult circumstances. Matt pictorial boards. B/w photos, a few colour photos. Not paginated. Spine lightly faded, corners of boards lightly worn. Bookplate to half-title page and a few grubby marks to same. Text block lightly browned. Contents clean.
