""A Naturalist Among The Headhunters"" is a non-fiction book written by Charles Morris Woodford. The book is an account of Woodford's three visits to the Solomon Islands in the years 1886-1888. Woodford was a naturalist who was interested in studying the flora and fauna of the islands. However, his visits to the islands also gave him a unique opportunity to observe the customs and traditions of the indigenous people, including their practice of headhunting.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Woodford's experiences in the Solomon Islands. In the early chapters, Woodford describes his journey to the islands and his first encounters with the local people. He also provides a detailed account of the geography and natural history of the islands, including descriptions of the plants and animals he observed.As the book progresses, Woodford delves deeper into the culture of the Solomon Islanders. He describes their daily lives, their social customs, and their religious beliefs. He also provides a detailed account of the practice of headhunting, which was still common in some parts of the islands at the time of his visits.Throughout the book, Woodford's writing is characterized by a sense of curiosity and wonder. He is clearly fascinated by the people and the natural environment of the Solomon Islands, and his descriptions are vivid and engaging. At the same time, he is also critical of some of the practices he observes, particularly the practice of headhunting.Overall, ""A Naturalist Among The Headhunters"" is a fascinating and insightful look at a unique time and place in history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural history or cultural anthropology of the Solomon Islands, or in the history of colonialism and exploration in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
