Shadow Divers

I was apprehensive about this book. I don't like the idea of people diving to a wreck and desecrating remains so they can scavenge and grave rob, and I was worried this book was going to be a glorification of that behavior.

It wasn't at all. It's a story about modern-day adventurers who risked their lives so they could identify U-869 without any bureaucratic red tape. From their telling, they were respectful to the dead, and the epilogue of the book had me holding back tears.

What you'll also learn in this book is what divers put themselves through when diving to these wrecks, and how even a few extra minutes can cost them hours of decompression.
