This book focuses on two shipwrecks: a 1700 Caribbean slave ship and an 1898 passenger steamer that went down off Cape Cod. Cerullo chronicles the ongoing undersea explorations and documentation of the vessels while also illustrating how the resulting debris has become home to myriad marine creatures. Photographs, maps, and sidebars add interest and clarity to the well-written text. Websites. Glos., ind.
