Shadow Divers
« on: January 12, 2009, 06:11:39 PM »
My lovely girlfriend bought me a book to read on the plane on my all expense paid vaction to the lovely sands of Iraq.  Finished in in about a day and a half.  The book was Shadow Divers, its about a bunch of scuba divers back in the early 90's that found a sunken german U-boat at 230 feet and their adventures trying to identify the name of the wreck.  It was damn good and im not much of a reader.  So if you happen to find yourself bored, on a long plane ride to Iraq, or maybe one of those wierd people that read for fun i suggest giving it a look.

One of the divers, I believe his name is Richie Kohler, writes for "Wreck Diving" magazine now besides his appearances on "Deep Sea Detectives".  The magazine usually covers about three wrecks an issue and gives a very detailed history of the ship and how it sank.

I've read Shadow Divers and The Last Dive. Both are very good books. I believe that Shadow Divers is being made into a movie.
