Review: For a fascinating nonfiction glimpse into the salvage of a Japanese submarine carrying war gold between Japan and Germany, read the article entitled, "The Last Dive of I-52." The parallels are stunning, and I can't help but wonder how much of this true story Stephenson was aware of when writing his book. The lead technical contractor for the salvage operation was Seattle-based Sound Ocean Systems and the dust jacket tells us Stephenson lives "in the Pacific Northwest."National Geographic's teaser above the title of the article sets the stage: World war II in the Atlantic...German U-boats...Secret Codes...Gold Bullion...A Rendezvous at Sea...American Flyboys..Sudden Death...A Salvage Hunter...The Lust for Gold...And a Japanese Sub on...THE LAST DIVE
