as the team searches for, discovers and explores, among others, the wrecks of RMS Carpathia, the ship that rescued Titanic's survivors; Mary Celeste, the infamous "ghost ship" found sailing alone without a soul aboard, in the mid-Atlantic in 1872; Vrouw Maria, a perfectly preserved Dutch cargo ship of 1771, discovered on the bottom of the Baltic Ocean packed with cargo, including crates of long-lost Old Masters belonging to Empress Catherine the Great of Russia; the lost ships of the Mongol fleet of Kublai Khan that invaded Japan in 1274; and wreck of the USS Mississinewa, the first ship sunk by a Japanese "suicide submarine" in WWII.Stories and personalities of the past are interspersed with visits and voyages around the world - crossing the Atlantic, drifting in a powerless ship at the mercy of gales in the heart of the Pacific, and navigating through the fabled Northwest Passage. The undeniable thrill of being where history was made make "Adventures of a Sea Hunter" a highly entertaining, personal account of the exploration of the sea and the past that rests beneath the waves.By Clive Cussler, Craig Dirgo. 2023

marvels that changed history.For decades, Clive Cussler's real-life NUMA®, the National Underwater and Marine Agency, has scoured rivers and seas in search of lost ships of historic significance. His teams have been inundated by tidal waves and beset by obstacles - both human and natural - but the results, and the stories behind them, have been dramatic.Here Cussler and colleague Craig Dirgo provide an extraordinary narrative of their true seagoing - and land - adventures, including:- Their searches for the famous ghost ship Mary Celeste, found floating off the Azores in 1874 with no one on board- The Carpathia, the ship that rescued the Titanic survivors and was itself lost to U-boats six years later- And L'Oiseau Blanc, the aeroplane that almost beat The Spirit of St. Louis across the Atlantic before disappearing in the Maine woods.All these, plus steamboats, ironclads, a seventeenth-century flagship, a certain famous PT boat, and even a dirigible, are tantalising targets as Cussler proves again that truth can be "at least as fun, and sometimes stranger, than fiction" (Men's Journal).By Clive Cussler, Craig Dirgo. 2023
