The Gland Men of the Island by Malcolm Afford is about the explorer Doctor Clovelly and Follansbee as they travel by sea to reach the Polynesian islands. Excerpt: “To many who read my account of our amazing adventure on the island of the Gland Men, it will serve as just another illustration of how devious is the path of science. It will illustrate also how, from the darkness that girds it round, terrible possibilities loom black and menacing, terrifying those daring enough to wander from the beaten track.”
