Recording Kastom: Alfred Haddon’s Journals

Edited by Jude Philp and Anita Herle

A comprehensive and critical edition of Alfred Haddon’s intimate and remarkably rich journals from his two expeditions to the Torres Strait in 1888–89 and 1898–99.

Haddon’s diaries were a real pleasure to read and their publication will be a real contribution to both scholars of the Pacific and to Torres Strait Islanders.
