About this book
In Search Of Human Heads
Author: Ernest T. Morris
Year: 1884
Ernest T. Morris (1856-1891), known as the "Boy Naturalist" or "Boy Explorer," made seven trips to the Amazon valley between 1875 and 1884. He was a Special Correspondent for the New York World , writing many columns describing his journeys. This text covers his first and second journeys, including (starting in Chapter IV) his 1876-1877 trek up the Tapajos and Cururu rivers to reach the villages of the Campineiros, an isolated sub-group of the Munduruku tribe. Morris made this trip on a shoestring budget, when he was just twenty years old.
