The Sepik and its Catchment Area

By Walter Behrmann

This is the fifth publication translated from German into English by John Dennison for the Otago University Anthropology/Archaeology Publication Series. Behrmann's Der Sepik was based on research into the geography and peoples of the Sepik region of New Guinea undertaken just prior to the outbreak of The First World War, and published in 1917. It is a wonderful volume exploring not only the nature of the Sepik river, but also the various tributaries. Dennison's translation provides a vivid glimpse into the vegetation, the geography, and the geology of this region, recorded over a century ago.
