Book Reviews of Deep Descent: Adventure and Death Diving the Andrea Doria

Book Review: "The mind is supreme and the mind is falliable..."
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is most definitely required reading for divers at any level, but especially those who dive wrecks. It's been said that the Andrea Doria is the Mt. Everest for divers in terms of sheer difficulty and, based on the narratives in this book, I'm inclined to agree.
