Review: Shadow Divers


Shadow Divers
Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Gripping and exciting!

The larger-than-life characters with their honor, thrill-seeking and history discoveries make the tale of finding this the wreck of a WWII submarine a fascinating account. The world of wreck diving gets illuminated, and i love highly obsessive subcultures. Narration by Michael Prichard very good.

This tale of acting on a tip from a local fisherman and discovering a sunken German U-boat not too far off the New Jersey coastand the hunt for clues all the way to Germany make this one of the best non-fiction reads of recent years.
