A Pearling Master's Journey by John Edgar deBurgh Norman charts the colourful true story of an Australian pearling pioneer navigating treacherous northern waters and shifting economic tides. Illustrated with period photographs, this 2007 hardcover blends biography, maritime history and cultural studies into a vivid snapshot of the nation's once-thriving pearl-shell industry.

Former library copy shows sturdy reading wear: laminated boards carry the usual stickers and stamps, page edges are ink-stamped, and two bottom margins have small chips, yet the binding remains tight and text unmarked. From a smoke-free home, it presents cleanly for reference or display.

Ideal for adults and young adults fascinated by Australian history, pearling lore, or regional coastal life, this scarce title makes a reliable addition to any transport, local history or true-adventure shelf.
