The Eternal Darkness, by Robert D Ballard

The Eternal Darkness, A personal history of deep sea exploration
Robert D Ballard

Bob Ballard has done more than most to cast light on the ‘eternal darkness’ of the deep sea. He discovered the wreck of the Titanic, led teams that discovered the hydrothermal vents and ‘black smokers’. He was a diver on the team that explored the mid-Atlantic ridge for the first time. In this book he combines science, history, spectacular illustrations and first hand stories of his own expeditions.
