Description:
Adventure nonfiction at its best by the co-author, with Gene Hackman, of W*ake of the Perdido Star*.
*Submerged* is Daniel Lenihan's remarkable story of 25 years as founder and head of the Submerged Cultural Resource Unit (SCRU)—ranging from ancient ruins covered by reservoirs in the desert Southwest to a World War II submarine off the Alaskan coast; from the Isle Royale shipwrecks in the frigid Lake Superior to the *USS Arizona* in Pearl Harbor; from the *HL Hunley*, the first submarine in history to sink an enemy ship, in Charleston Harbor to the ships sunk by atomic bombs at Bikini Atoll, and much more.
