"The Head Hunters of Northern Luzon" by Cornélis De Witt Willcox is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book details the author's journey through the mountainous regions of Northern Luzon, specifically focusing on the indigenous highland tribes, including the Igorottes and Ilongots. Through his observations and experiences, Willcox aims to shed light on the lives and cultures of the Highlanders, emphasizing their traditions, social structures, and the challenges faced under colonial governance. At the start of the book, Willcox introduces the context of his journey, which follows a formal inspection tour arranged by the Secretary of the Interior of the Philippine Islands. He reflects on the largely untamed and remarkable wilderness of Northern Luzon, where he hopes to observe the mountain tribes that exhibit a mix of harsh survival and cultural richness. The opening chapters depict the vivid scenery, the hospitality of the local tribes, and Willcox's interactions with the Igorottes and Ilongots, laying the groundwork for a deeper exploration into their unique customs, social dynamics, and the author's efforts to develop a rapport with these often misunderstood communities.
