Summary Through his work in motion pictures, Lloyd Bridges appreciated the impact of skin diving upon this medium and presented an exciting picture of future possibilities in underwater photography. The author's role in Sea Hunt made him keenly aware of the revolution developing in the fields of salvage diving, treasure hunting, search and rescue, science, gold mining, and other virgin areas open to skin divers with imagination and enterprise. He described methods, techniques, and tools already in use and gave an exciting glimpse of future possibilities. First published in 1960, here is the complete story of skin diving as an exciting new field for fun, adventure, and opportunity open to millions of average swimmers. Those who are willing to accept the challenge of exploring and conquering a new world can benefit from past mistakes and the accumulation of experience by early skin divers; and perhaps become tomorrow's pioneers who have yet to conquer the problems of great depths and reap the harvest on the bottom of the sea.
