| Summary/Abstract |
As The Surrounded opens, Archilde León has just returned from the big city to his father's ranch on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana. The story that unfolds captures the intense and varied conflict that already characterized reservation life in 1936, when this remarkable novel was first published. Educated at a federal Indian boarding school, Archilde is torn not only between white and Indian cultures but also between love for his Spanish father and his Indian mother, who in her old age is rejecting white culture and religion to return to the ways of her people. Archilde's young contemporaries, meanwhile, are succumbing to the destructive influence of reservation life, growing increasingly uprooted, dissolute, and hopeless. Although Archilde plans to leave the reservation after a brief visit, his entanglements delay his departure until he faces destruction by the white man's law. In an early review of The Surrounded, Oliver La Farge praised it as "simple, clear, direct, devoid of affectations, and fast-moving." He included it in his "small list of creditable modern novels using the first Americans as theme." Several decades later, long out of print but not forgotten, The Surrounded is still considered one of the best works of fiction by or about Native Americans.

| Summary/Abstract |
Former Royal Marine officer and expedition leader Bruce Parry, sheds the trappings of a western existence and lives alongside tribes, such as the forest people of central Gabon, adopting their methods and practices. Taking adventure into a whole new realm, Parry dares to go where other presenters fear to tread: hunting, cooking and eating like a native and even trying the local recreational and ritualistic poisons. He also examines the way in which western influence is encroaching on these remote areas and asks whether this is a good thing.

World's lost tribes

| Summary/Abstract |
Extreme travelers Mark Anstice and Olly Steeds embark on a unique expedition into one of the most remote rainforests on earth. Their mission: to track down and live with the remarkable Kombai tribe, a people whose existence was discovered only 25 years ago and whose ways have changed little since the Stone Age. Totally immersing themselves in this very different world for three months, Mark and Olly attempt to survive as the Kombai do, even if it means being attacked by ferocious warriors, eating huge maggots, living in a tree house and wearing grass skirts. From beginning to end, experience the highs and lows of this intrepid pair's fascinating quest to survive the rigors of rainforest life, and go behind-the-scenes for a candid and surprising look at the Kombai tribe.
