This is what a travel narrative should be. Part adventure story as Lightner, three friends, and a cumbersome camera crew climb a rarely climbed peak in very inner Borneo.
The flip side to this story is a biographical account of a general sent in with a small crew during WWII with no prior contact with the locals (known to collect the heads of their enemies), and stop the Japanese. Not having any idea if they will survive or be in any way successful, they jump from a plane at the base of this mountain and try to make it known that they, too, are enemies of the Japanese.
