WEST AUSTRALIANA
A collection of stories portraying the hardships encountered by the thousands of men who were engaged in the pearling industry during the early part of the 1900s. The township of Broome became the melting pot to many nationalities, many of whom never saw their homelands again and were buried in lonely graves or consigned to the ocean.
