"Navy Diver" will make a lasting impression.... January 17, 2003
Charles Smallman (Buena Vista, VA USA)
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's been a while since I read this book, but remember details as if was yesterday. It didn't inspire me to be a hardhat diver, cutting away anti-submarine nets in the Golden Gate, spending hours in a de-compression chamber, or talking like Donald Duck in a heliox atmosphere, but the events related by Joe Karneke stimulated me to learn more about them in the years to come. I read this book around 35 years ago, providing a young teenager a view on a world under the sea that was real, immediate, and interactive with man the achiever. (I always thought it would have made a decent motion picture.)Buy it for the young and curious, and it may plant a seed of inspiration.
