A Good Anthology

This is a wonderful nearly 500 page book featuring over 30 articles and excerpt writings from some of the world's great divers - including stories of mishaps from submariners and sailors, and an appendix on the history of diving. Scuba diving attracts a fine calibre of people and this adventure book proves it. There are many words of experience and wisdom contained within; well-written with deep sensitivity to the life, beauty and challenges of the seas. I bought a Used-New copy and it was worth every penny. Enjoy.
