Long description:
An awe-inspiring deep-dive into the treasures found on the sea floor and what they reveal about our past.
A shipwreck is a time capsule. When a maritime&&&160;archaeologist picks up an item from the seabed,&&&160;there is a direct connection with history. The last&&&160;time the object was touched could have been&&&160;centuries before; now, it’s starting a new life.
The millions of vessels that lie under the sea tell the&&&160;human history of the world. Mensun Bound is the&&&160;renowned marine archaeologist who was the&&&160;Director of Exploration on the team that discovered&&&160;Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance. With journalist
Mark Frary, Bound uses the many treasures he has&&&160;discovered, from Nazi eagles to cannonballs, to&&&160;write a maritime history of the world from 3000 BC. Interwoven throughout with beautiful photographs,&&&160;Wonders in the Deep is a riveting story of human&&&160;ambition, defeat and ingenuity.
