Opis

Before the coming of Australian kiaps, stores, and medicine to the Southern Highlands Province in Papua New Guinea, a baby boy was born in the Kagua Sub-District. His father was the great warrior, Mambi, but when Mambi led his tribe against another tribe who had procured steel axes, he was viciously chopped on one shoulder. Could he survive? Soon after his son, Dindi, was born, the mother died. Was it better to bury a baby with its dead mother than to watch it slowly starve to death and hear it cry? Boso didn't think so, but could he buck the whole tribe when he was just a lad? The story is true. Some conversation is assumed.
