Pt. Moresby, May 1.
Constable and Co., Ltd., London, have published “Across New Guinea,” by Ivan Champion.
It is an extremely interesting account of the remarkable patrol made in 1927 by Karius and Champion, when they crossed the island of New Guinea, from the Fly River to the Sepik River. It has an introduction by His Excellency Sir Hubert Murray, the Lieut.-Governor of Papua, in which he refers to the patrol as a really fine achievement.
