In our age of space travel and supersonic aircraft, the sea remains the most important means of transport, the lifeblood of our daily existence. For thousands of years man has tried to conquer the sea, yet the ocean floor is littered with the remains of vessels which have fallen victim to the elemental forces as well as poor navigation. This volume records the fate of nearly 100 ships, from the Mary Rose in 1545 to the Exxon Valdez in 1989. Over 150 b/w photos and illustrations.
