dc.description.abstractThis fast-paced verse novel is set on a pearling lugger in the Torres Strait in the 1930s. Using historical evidence from the documentary record and the participants themselves, Japanese, Islander, Aboriginal and European, Judy Johnson offers insights into life at sea as part of one of the most dangerous occupations, where divers routinely died or were crippled by the bends.en_AU
