From the Mediterranean to the Pacific, from the Caribbean to the Red Sea, Beneath the Seven Seas takes the reader around the world in first-hand accounts of more than forty of the most exciting shipwreck and sunken-city projects ever undertaken. An expert team of archaeologists vividly describe shipwrecks from centuries past, from the oldest and deepest ever excavated to the remains of battles in both the European and Pacific theatres of World War II, accompanied throughout by hundreds of evocative photographs and specially commissioned diagrams, reconstructions and plans.
