Savage Harvest: A Tale of Cannibals, Colonialism, and Michael Rockefeller's Tragic Quest for Primitive Art by Carl Hoffman

4.0

Difficult to listen to at times (I had the audiobook) but the portrayal of the tribal culture 50 years ago and today is utterly fascinating and the detective story is compelling. It is just mind boggling to think of these peoples who are apart from the history and development that shape every moment of our lives. I have seen that canoe many times and knew nothing of its origin. I look forward to visiting it and the other pieces Michael collected, on my next trip to New York.
