This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Bevan describes several expeditions that he led along the south coast of Papua from 1884-1887. Bevan explored the coastline of British New Guinea and the descriptive map depicts his most amazing routes and discoveries. This is a fascinating account which relates in detail the authors experiences... "The Victory left Thursday Island, Torres Straits, and entered the Aird river at Cape Blackwood. At Attack Point a hostile body of sixty nude Papuans contested our entrance to the great river. These savages, after some hesitation, bore down upon us, alternately splashing the water into the air and beating time with their paddles against the sides of their canoes, also shooting volleys of arrows at us both before and after coming within range. This attack was decided in our favour, without any bloodshed, by a judicious use of the steam-whistle and a few shots fired high and wide. These harmless measures caused the natives to take as one man to the water, prior to re-embarking and paddling off crestfallen home. They were painted, decorated with feather head-dresses in addition to other ornaments, and wore white groin shells to partly conceal their nudity. They were above the middle height, of great muscular development, and of a dark bronze colour..." A Most Illuminating Account on an Extraordinary Journey into Barbarous New Guinea, Accompanied by a Spectacular Colour Map of Jubille and Philip Rivers and their Tributaries, Showing the Discoveries Made by the "Victory" Expedition under the Command of Mr. Theodore Bevan, with an Inset Showing New Guinea.
