I've always been fascinated by ship wrecks, they are very romantic to me. Quiet, forever buried in the sea, reminiscent of times long past... This book really compliments these romantic ideas. It is full of beautiful large pictures of ships and plains from interesting points of view. The book covers about 45 wracks, surprisingliy though, not the RMS Titanic! That was a bit of a disapointment as my fascination started when the movie Titanic came out and I began to read about it. Focus is on the background of the wreck, why it sank, which is described in detail most of the time. Beside this, the book also offers a divers' guide for professional divers who want to explore the ships for themselves. I didn't find that info useful as I'm not a diver, but I'm sure it will be useful for divers. Definitely a worthy book!
