Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson
Neat book about two New Jersey Divers hunting for the identity of a sunken U-Boat off the Jersey Coast. Good character development, exciting dive sequences and a look back at the crew of the German Sub. And lots of pictures. Combination adventure yarn, history story and borderline soap opera. Its worth a look.

1. A nice companion book: "Operation Drumbeat" by Michael Gannon.
Doesn't make the US military command look too good, but very interesting reading.

2. Thanks very much, its on my list
Often the U. S. Military command does not look good all on its own.

4. I listened to it on audiobook. It was most entertaining.

It was a mystery (why the sub was there and which one was it) and I love mysteries.
