I Come from the Stone Age

"From the author of the best-selling Seven Years in Tibet comes this superb account of thrilling mountain climbs, near disaster in dense jungle, and fascinating encounters with natives as primitive as stone age man. Told in diary form and filled with an immediacy and directness that give the reader full participation in this daring expedition into New Guinea's interior, Heinrich Harrer's I Come from the Stone Age is a true adventure at its exciting best." - dust jacket
