Based on the exceptional and fascinating eyewitness account of a seventeenth-century Spanish padre, Dave Horner's Shipwreck is the absorbing and true story of two immense galleons that were lost (along with hundreds of passengers and millions of pesos in treasure) to disasters at sea. Shipwreck is an extraordinary literary adventure which interweaves accounts of the many attempts throughout the past three centuries to recover the sunken treasure, including the recent discovery and salvage of one of the galleons by Dave Horner himself. Shipwreck is an outstanding history of true adventure on the high seas, past and present, which is wonderfully enhanced for the reader with 50 photographic illustrations, six maps, four line drawings, seven appendices, as well as bibliographies of archival sources, institutions, original documents or primary works, and a general listing of thematically appropriate titles for further suggested readings.

Download Lost Treasure Ships of the Northern Seas Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The seas of northern Europe are probably the most heavily traveled in recent millennia, and there are literally thousands of wrecks lying in what is relatively shallow water. Among these a significant proportion may be regarded as high-value--either in financial terms or because of their potential contribution to historical knowledge--but few have been precisely located. This book identifies 500 such sites, giving concise details of ship, voyage, cargo and current state of knowledge. This represents a large proportion of the most valuable wrecks in the designated area. The book is also introduced by twenty detailed case-studies of wrecks chosen to illustrate the range of problems--and rewards--likely to be encountered by anyone diving on these sites. These include a variety of ship types, from a Roman trading vessel to a German liner sunk in the Baltic by the Russians in 1945. Well written and heavily illustrated, this book is both a practical guide for divers and an entertainment for armchair adventurers.

Download Encyclopedia of Western Atlantic Shipwrecks and Sunken Treasure Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
From aerial survey to zoology, Part I of this two-part encyclopedia covers all aspects of underwater archeology, treasure hunting and salvaging. For example, entries are included for different types of artifacts, notable treasure hunters, the various salvaging equipment, and techniques in mapping and excavating. Part II covers the shipwrecks themselves, dividing them into 13 geographical categories. Beginning with the northernmost category (Canada) and ending with the southernmost (South America), every known shipwreck--both identified and unidentified--receives an entry in alphabetical order under its appropriate geographical category. Entries are by name, such as Andrea Gail, Titanic, and Queen Ann's Revenge. Unidentified is used when a shipwreck's name remains unknown. Entries give the nationality (e.g., Spanish, British, American), type (schooner, frigate, brig are three), function (examples: slave transportation, piracy, fishing), location and history of the shipwreck.
