Publisher Description

INTRODUCTION [My] first patrol was with Carleton [Gajdusek]. We ... spent three nights in the bush. Our food supply ran out in the three days that we walked. We picked breadfruit and a banana that grows slow ... we steamed them in bamboo and ate that for food. We took pandanus ... and one of our patrol men got a different type ... not for eating ... and he boiled it and ate. [He] was sick by morning (Inamba).
