“Deep Descent: Adventure and Death Diving the Andrea Doria”

Kevin F. McMurray

This is a straightforward adventure story about the diver’s Everest, the 250-foot-deep wreck of the Italian luxury liner Andrea Doria. McMurray doesn’t spend much time dealing with the motivations of men who risk their lives for crockery, but does give graphic accounts of decades of dives and their sometimes-fatal consequences.
