''Toil, Travel And Discovery In British New Guinea'' is a book written by Theodore F. Bevan, which chronicles his experiences during his time in British New Guinea. The book is a detailed account of his travels, his work, and his interactions with the people and culture of the region. Theodore F. Bevan was a British colonial administrator who served in British New Guinea during the early 20th century. He was posted to various parts of the region, including the Fly River, the Sepik River, and the Milne Bay area. His book provides a unique perspective on the colonial era, as he was not only an observer but an active participant in the process of colonization.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular aspect of Bevan’s experiences. He describes the challenges he faced in navigating the rugged terrain and the difficulties of communicating with the local people, who spoke a variety of different languages. He also writes about the different cultures he encountered, including the Papuan tribes and the Melanesian islanders.One of the key themes of the book is the impact of colonialism on the region. Bevan describes the ways in which British rule transformed the landscape and the lives of the people who lived there. He also reflects on the ethical and moral implications of colonialism and the challenges faced by those who sought to balance the needs of the colonizers with the rights of the colonized.Overall, ''Toil, Travel And Discovery In British New Guinea'' is a fascinating and insightful account of a pivotal period in the history of Papua New Guinea. It provides a valuable perspective on the challenges and opportunities of colonialism and sheds light on the complex relationships between colonizers and colonized.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
