Natural Man describes the customs and beliefs, the arts, crafts, creeds, superstitions, morals, and tribal village lifestyle of the various peoples who inhabited the northern region of Borneo. The author, Charles Hose, was a keen amateur naturalist and anthropologist, recruited to the Sarawak Civil Service in 1884. His enthusiastic account of the people and society he found there is as entertaining today - despite its old fashioned approach - as it was on its first appearance.
