Oceans: Exploring the Hidden Depths by Paul Rose

The oceans are the single most important feature of our planet. Yet their depths have remained a mysterious and unchartered expanse. This book draws on the stories from the fields of subaquatic archaeology, geology, marine biology, and anthropology to reveal this landscape of forgotten shipwrecks, submerged volcanoes, and hidden caves.
