Some Comments on “Journey from Mingkoka Bay to Kendari”

Resource File: 
Description: 
In February and March 1903 the Swiss explorers Paul Sarasin and and his cousin Fritz Sarasin traveled across Sulawesi’s southeastern peninsula. This was followed two years later by their report about the journey, published as chapter 6 in volume 1 of Reisen in Celebes. Later, and after the establishment of colonial authority over the peninsula, the civil administrator in Kendari, Frits Treffers, offered some six pages of corrections and other comments concerning the Sarasins’ account, which are here translated into English.
