Port Moresby Tales and Papuan Village Life Notes
Beatrice Grimshaw visits Port Moresby and nearby shores noting a largely preserved native life with huts on stilts over water and traditional crafts. Dance forms vary from communal to war and devil dances with elaborate head dresses and shark masks. Cruising trips offer calm days, while copra and rubber prices dip and unemployment rises, yet carnival spirits lift both locals and visitors.
