Reviews

This book has something to offer every marine archaeologist, conservator dealing with shipwreck material, and CRM managers. ...it clearly demonstrates in a concise manner how the geological, physical environments of water and sediments, and biological environments all interplay when shipwrecks are being considered. For all underwater archaeologists, conservators, and cultural resource managers the book is an invaluable reference source. --Donny L. Hamilton, Texas A&M University International Journal of Maritime History (01/01/0001)
