Why read it?

1 author picked A Stroll Through Borneo as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book, by a well-born English friend of mine, was written when he was young and fancy free; he was then (in 1978) accurately described on the book jacket as a cheerful young man “who greets each new acquaintance and experience with enormous enthusiasm” as he makes his way alone, without fuss (while making local indigenous friends along the way) for five months through what was then one of the last remaining wild spots in the world. 

From Judith's list on 20th Century Borneo.
