1-' Hunters of the Mountains '
In the first of these three programmes George Farwell describes an expedition into a valley in Central Papua, first entered by a white man in 1954. Among these lost ranges of New Guinea they found a people strangely resembling our own remote ancestors, untouched by modern civilisation.
