Excerpt from The Native Races of the Indian Archipelago Papuans The study of the Human Race, in its various phases, has become greatly extended since the late Dr. Prichard, the father of Ethnographical Science in this country, commenced his researches into the physical history of mankind. The inaugural essay of the young physician in the year 1808, was expanded into a large volume in 1813, and further researches, prosecuted without intermission during a long and active professional life, extended the work until it became one of the most valuable contributions to modern scientific literature of which any nation can boast. The importance of the science which the learned physiologist has the merit of introducing to this country, is daily becoming more appreciated.

This work is an exciting account of the author's thrilling adventures in New Guinea. A. F. R. Wollaston was an English medical doctor, botanist, and explorer. Wollaston decided to spend his life on exploration and natural history. He traveled broadly and wrote books about his travels and work. He includes vivid descriptions of the place, his experiences, and his interactions with the people. Wollaston took part in the BOU Expedition to the Snowy Mountains of Netherlands New Guinea in 1910–11. The primary goal was to climb the highest mountains there and collect biological and ethnological specimens. The expedition was unsuccessful in its chief aim mainly because of the muddling by the Dutch authorities. Later in 1912 and 1913, Wollaston led a second expedition popularly known as the Wollaston Expedition to New Guinea.
