Customer Reviews

Great book for the diver and non-diver alike.

A collection of true, short stories related to the world of scuba diving from the best of the best. The stories told here make divers want to put on their gear and go diving. The same stories inspire non-divers to learn the sport. An easy read, this is a good companion book to take along on the subway or plane when reading time is limited, or as the title suggests, to curl up with in front of a fire on dreary winter's night. As the editor of DivesafeandOften.com, I see many scuba related books come across my desk; however, this is one of the more outstanding. It is not an instructional book but rather a look at the magical underwater world and the creatures who dwell therein which are accessible only to scuba divers.

Interesting collection of stories

Lots of interesting stories, but a few were decidedly not diving related and somewhat out of place. (In particular, a story about gold mining.)

A great book that would turn anyone onto diving!

The stories in this book are not just amazing, but are interesting and funny. As a dive instructor, I have used some of the stories as tools in my rescue and divemaster classes. I would love to have a dive experience that would measure up to these experiences of the writers and their families.

Great collection of diving related short stories!

If you enjoy scuba diving and the excitement, pleasure and special moments connected with the sport then this is a must read. Many of the true greats of diving share some of their best moments and experiances. The kind of book that you can pick up, read a story or two and be proud that you to are part of the diving world.
