Wreck Valley III - Capt Dan Berg

Wreck Valley III is the most comprehensive, accurate, illustrated collection of information, photographs, sketches and stories ever written about the shipwrecks that lie off Long Island, New York and New Jersey. This book is a completely new update, expanded and enhanced edition of Daniel Berg's original Wreck Valley book. Wreck Valley's 3rd edition covers the history, legend, present condition, aquatic life, and pertinent dive information on over 140 shipwrecks. This text includes over 550 illustrations, comprised of 400 color photographs, 111 black and white historical photographs, 35 sketches, 20 side scan sonar images and nine 3-D underwater shipwreck illustrations. The collection of historical photographs alone would take years of archive research to locate and would cost a small fortune if purchased separately. Many of these rare images have never before been published. Wreck Valley III includes a GPS list of accurate artificial reef and shipwreck locations. Divers, fisherman, marine historians, armchair sailors or anyone with a general interest in history, diving or the sea will surely find this book informative, fascinating, and the perfect addition to their library.
