4 out of 5 stars Before taking the training   February 18, 2008
A good book. It answered several of my questions and answered questions that I didn't know to ask. NOT a substitute for training but a good addition. It actually increased my interest in wreck diving. Also an easy read and suggests many places to find wreck to dive on.

Although not complete from a technical diving aspect, this is a great primer on how to start a research project. There are ample examples of historical resources, of what to do if one finds a wreck, how to lay claim, etc. Overall alot of good information on wreck diving.


5 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good   November 29, 2006
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

When I first leafed through this book, I mistakenly thought that it would be a dry read. I was wrong. This book provides a wealth of information: particularly on finding and identifying wrecks. It gave great insight into where to find information about wrecks; right down to the places and addresses where maritime archives are stored and how to perform research. Informative descriptions of equipment give the reader a good foothold of knowledge to start planning dives & searches.
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in wreck diving, especially if you've dreamed of finding that virgin wreck site but didn't know where to start or what resources are available.



5 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC GUIDE TO A FASCINATING SPORT   October 21, 2005
 11 out of 12 found this review helpful

This is a fine book full of good information on how to safely enjoy diving on shipwrecks. The authors, wreck diving Professor Henry Keatts, world class photographer and Wreck Diver Brian Skerry (National Geographic, People, etc.) are the perfect duo to write such a work.

The book contains many fine pictures and illustrations acompanied by a wonderfully descriptive and informative text. This is a must have for the bookshelf of any aspiring or experienced wreck diver
