Discoveries: Underwater Archaeology (Discoveries (Harry Abrams))
Some of the most exciting archaeological discoveries aren't made by Indiana Jones wannabes prowling through the jungle in search of forgotten cities or by Egyptologists looking for lost passageways in the pyramids. They are found by divers exploring shipwrecks such as theTitanicand the U.S.S.Monitor.Every now and then they even uncover the remains of human settlements sleeping beneath the waves.Underwater Archaeologyis an inexpensive and colorful book about the people who do this work and what they sometimes bring to the surface--a great introduction to the subject. It is another fine title in the Discoveries series of books published by Harry N. Abrams.
