This is the diary of five years spent in hot pursuit-not of honor and glory, but of excitement and riches-by one such adventurer, Michael ""Mick"" Leahy, his brothers Jim and Pat, and friends Mick Dwyer and Jim Taylor. Leahy and his associates explored the unknown interior of New Guinea, seeking gold and making contact for the first time with the aborigines of the interior mountains and valleys.EthnologyPapua New GuineaFirst contact (Anthropology)Papua New GuineaPapua New GuineaDescription and travelPapua New GuineaSocial life and customsEthnologyFirst contact (Anthropology)305.8305.8/009953305.8009953Leahy Michael J.1901-1979.1584993Jones Douglas E1584994MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778988703321Explorations into highland New Guinea, 1930-19353869183UNINA
