Very interesting account of the discovery of a u-boat off the NJ coast and the divers who explored it, what they found on it, as well as how they tracked down records to identify which u-boat it was. I especially liked the parts about the personalities and lives of the divers themselves, and what they found out about the dead crew members and their families. Also mentions diving on the Andrea Doria - fascinating!
Fascinating story. You learn a lot about deepwreck diving, WWII Uboats and the obsession of daring and treacherous divs.
I didn't think I would be into deep sea diving and a true story but I was totally surprised and delighted. This book was amazing! It kept my interest and had me hooked. What an incredible true story. I completely enjoyed every minute of it.
The account and lives of the men involved with this story are fascinating. The reader does a great job. Personally, I found the strong language excessive and distracting to the message of the book.
This was as good a true story as I've ever heard. Well written with just the right mix of fact and author portrayal of events. It is an amazing story of how history sometimes gets distorted by the way events are recorded and then passed on through written texts. Cambell Scott does a great job reading the book too.
Who knew we had German submarines off the New Jersey coast in World War II! How it got here and how it was sunk without anyone knowing about it is part of the joy this book imparts during your reading...
