Stated first edition with [B]. This autobiography of the famous maritime explorer recounts his true adventures, including how the remains of the Titanic were discovered and photographed; the secrets of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge; finding the wreck of the Bismarck; and exploring and photographing the flotilla of American, Australian, and Japanese warships sunk at Guadalcanal during World War II.. First Trade Paperback. Hard Cover. Fine. 8vo., Hyperion, 1995, 5, New York: Warner Books, 1993. First Edition. Large Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. First edition. Left jacket flap clipped. 1993 Large Hardcover. 227, [1] pp. Color and black-and-white photographs, illustrations, and maps throughout. Dozens of battered warships lie beneath the constricted waters off Guadalcanal, justifying the macabre moniker of Iron Bottom Sound. Unseen for 50 years, this submarine battlefield received its first visitor in 1992, aquanaut Robert Ballard. The twisted, encrusted shapes he saw are here spread out with the same lavish pictorial formula used in his enormously popular albums on the Titanic and the Bismarck. Prewar photos of battleships in dress regalia contrast graphically with eerie paintings and photos of shell and torpedo strikes that destroyed them and their crews. Now--as in the moment of foundering during the half dozen sharp, short naval battles around the island--guns aim askew, fatal holes gape wide, and turret plates peel back. The Titanic and the Bismarck--both on maiden voyages--sailed to the deep with ill-fated majesty. But Ballard treats these unheralded ships--American, Australian, and Japanese--with the same technical accuracy and awesome reverence. The author's name alone should trigger demand. Where will Ballard dive next? Jutland? Trafalgar?, Warner Books, 1993, 3, Mystic, Connecticut: Frank C.
