Shadow Divers


Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson - FANTASTIC. I had to do a review of this for a website and ended up actually buying the book after reading up on it on the internet.

Basically, it's a true story about a couple of wreck divers who found a U-boat wreck, and then spent about 7 years trying to identify it. At least 3 people died diving it, and the book is more like an action-adventure than a true story. A lot of people might get put off because it initially sounds quite boring, but I couldn't put it down.

Highly Recommended.

Re: Shadow Divers


Great book! Had a chance to see the site where the U boat was found. Totally wild that one got that close to the East coast and could have been hitting targets if not for the chance circumstance surrounding its sinking. Amazing how records can be wrong as to who was where when.
