A Naturalist Among The Headhunters is a non-fiction book written by Charles Morris Woodford, detailing his experiences during three visits to the Solomon Islands between 1886 and 1888.

The book provides a vivid account of his encounters with the indigenous people, who were known for their headhunting practices at the time.
