Very exciting submitted by willow on July 26, 2015, 3:42pm This book is composed of several components: the world of treasure-seeking, the lives of two different men who look for shipwrecks, how they came to work together, and the story of one particular pirate's shipwreck that they are now seeking. There are a lot of things going on in each section, and a lot of daring souls are chronicled; however, it makes for very exciting reading. Especially from the safety of one's own home.
