(Alfred Cort) The Pagan Tribes of Borneo A Description of Their Physical Moral and Intellectual Condition, with Some Discussion of Their Ethnic Relations This Etext Created by Jeroen Hellingman "The Pagan Tribes of Borneo" by Charles Hose and William McDougall is an ethnographic study written during the early 20th century.
