The Last Dive by Bernie Chowdhury

This gripping narrative recounts the Rouses' growing lust for what many consider the worlds most dangerous sport - as well as the cowboy culture of the deep diving community. They sought to discover the secrets of a mysterious German U-Boat that lay in 230 feet of water. They paid the ultimate price in their quest for fame.
While reading THE LAST DIVE, I could feel myself hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surfaceI had dreams where I felt the pressure and floated in the beauty. The story is well told, and once I started, I could barely come up for air. - Daniel Hays, co-author of New York Times bestselle

Meticulously detailed and dramatically paced, a tragic story told deftly and with the rare authority that comes only from personal experience. - Patrick Dillon, author of LOST AT SEA
Bernie Chowdhury is a world-class diver, well acquainted with the perils of diving. He is the founder and publisher of Immersed, the international diving magazine, and a recognised authority on extreme sport diving. He was a personal friend of Chris and Chrisy Rouse.
