Description: |
over 120 illustrations and photos; Jacques-Yves Cousteau describes his own expedition to the famous Silver Bank, a coral reef in the Caribbean, where the crew of the Calypso searched a centuries-old shipwreck for the secrets of its past and the fortune in silver and gold it might still contain. Persistence and the latest technologies in marine archaeology enabled them t unearth the ship's remnants, almost completely concealed by the myriad life forms of tropical waters. |
