Dive Scapa FlowThis is a comprehensive and fully revised guide to the Orkney wrecks - the intact remains of the scuttled German fleet, U-boats, steamers, tugs and Churchill's "Blockships". The author uses a mixture of historical narrative of the scuttling and subsequent salvage to describe the events at the end of World War I. The book includes details of the site and studies much deeper wrecks, with special emphasis on HMS Hampshire, only reached with the advent of "technical diving". Information on charterers, travel and accommodation is also included.
"A very impressive and concise guide to diving Scapa Flow From the beginning, it is obvious the author has done his research. Accompanied with photos taken by the author, the reader is taken through each wreck with detail paid to the history of the vessel and the fate that it befell. The book is not only an interesting read but a genuinely useful source of information for the prospective diver." Paul Wilson
