Dive books recommended??

[MichaelG]

Hey all,

I'm looking for another good book on diving to read. I have already read "Deep Descent" and "The Last Dive". Both were excellent books.

I am looking for more to read. I am thinking of reading "Dive into history" (about u-boat wrecks). Any opinions??

Its not the best book I've ever read, but some of his lines really make you realise how amazing diving really is, both as a sport, a career and spiritually....

Amazon using diving or scuba. You'll get a wealth of hits. My buddy just finished Bill Stone's and Barbara Em Ende's book on the cave system Hualta in Mexico. He said it was a real page turner.

A few of the pioneers:
Deep Diving by Brett Gilliam (sp)

The Cave Divers (can't remember author)

Other Informational:
Wreck Diving by Gary Gentile


Educational:

One of these days I'll catalog my library so that I don't have to rattle these off the top of my head.
