Title: Very Enjoyable read on 3 overlooked ships
Product review: This book focuses on the underwater archeological investigations of three ships: the Mehdia (an ancient trading vessel in the Mediterranean), the Aegammemnon (Lord Nelson's first command), and the Graf Spee (German Pocket Battleship). The section on the Mehdia is well-researched, but a little slow. The sections on Nelson's ship and the Graf Spee were riveting and hard to put down. The author weaves the history of the ship with the story of the modern search and investigative efforts in a very readable fashion. Not a lot of interesting modern day photos and certainly not a lot of artifact photos as these wrecks are located in low visibility water conditions. However, each page has some kind of photos and graphics that help illustrate the story. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it to you.
