Synopsis
Excerpt from The Indian Pearl Fisheries of the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay
The accompanying report upon the present condition and future prospects of the pearl banks off the coast of Madura and Tinnevelly is the outcome of a request for the loan of my services made by the Government of Madras to that of Ceylon in the spring of 1904.
