The Pearl, its story, its charm, and its value

** "The Pearl, its story, its charm, and its value" by Wallis Richard Cattelle is a detailed look at pearls, created in the early 1900s, that looks at the appeal, history, and how much pearls are worth. It explains how important they are to different groups of people and the trip they take from the ocean floor to valuable jewels. From the start, Cattelle shows the beauty of the sea where pearls come; he connects pearls to money, especially for kings, queens, and rich people. All in all, the book prepares the reader for a journey into the value of pearls, craftsmanship, pearl harvesting, and even pearl trading. **
