Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 2nd Edition. Slightly pressed book block. Book number on title page.' In The Ratters of Lightning Ridge, Richard Holmes takes the reader into the little-known world of the black opal: the volatile nature of the business and the people who mine and sell this product of the earth. Descending into a three-foot diameter shaft six stories down, shared by poisonous spiders and snakes, to chip at rock is not something the average person would find appealing. The 'Wild West' nature of Lightning Ridge and its part-time habitants will appeal to readers who enjoy adventure.' (Robert Fulton, PhD). Inscribed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 001039
