Throwim Way Leg: An Adventure
Throwim Way Leg: An Adventure

Adventure and cultural exploration in Papua New Guinea.

If you’re drawn to the raw spirit of adventure and yearn to dip into the vivid tapestry of cultures less touched by the modern world, "Throwim Way Leg" will lure you in. Tim Flannery’s journey is not just a physical trek but an emotional voyage that bridges the gap between ancient traditions and contemporary challenges. His experiences will likely resonate with the adventurous soul seeking profound encounters and ecological wonders.

Description

Throwim Way Leg is a book of wonder and excitement, struggle and sadness, a love letter to Papua New Guinea and Irian Jaya. Tim Flannery invites us to share in his breathtaking adventures, as he meets skilled hunters and befriends a shaman, climbs mountains never before scaled by Europeans, discovers new species, and stumbles across the giant bones of extinct marsupials. He also writes movingly about the fate of indigenous people when their intricate cultures collide with mining companies and the high-tech modern world.
