Interesting about new guinea and all the native tribes. Background story about an expedition into uncharted land into valley deep inland. Strange that so many people had been previously unknown for so long.

Still intriguing. Rescuers have decided to try to attempt a glider plane landing and try to pull the survivors out. Will be interesting to see if it works and goes smoothly. Survivors should be out of the jungle soon.

Author continues to give views from multiple angles. Interesting to see the diaries of survivors and rescuers. Will be interesting to see how rescuers are able to lead survivors out of the jungle, when nearest base is 150 miles away, and airplane landing is impossible.

Continues to provide excellent detail and remarkable stories. The men who dove into the jungle on parachutes to save the survivors are incredible. Author provides views from all angles- natives, survivors, rescuers, reporters, outsiders, etc.

Continues to be very interesting. The three survivors stranded in New Guinea have met native people who have never been exposed to the outside world. Very well written and provides excellent details about everything about the story.

Pretty good so far. Basically just introduction of characters and setting in New Guinea. Interesting WWII story so far.
