FOR MEDIA6 MARCH 1987
I was ve: y sorry to learn of the death on Tuesday of the
distinguished author and journalist, Cyril Pearl.
Cyril Pear:' made an outstanding contribution to Australian
social hic: tory and journalism. His civilised, witty and
humane w: iting in such works as Wild Men of Sydney, Morrison
of Peking and The Dunera Scandal will live on in our
literatu: e.
I extend my deepest sympathy to his widow and his sons.
