FREE: NAUTILUS: The Story of Man Under The Sea

The listing, NAUTILUS: The Story of Man Under The Sea has ended.

Nautilus tells the dramatic story of the conquest of inner space from the eccentric pioneers of the late nineteenth century to the supercraft of the modern world, using the words of the men who invented and worked on the machines. The unsung heroes of two world wars tell what life was really like under the waves- the fear and frustration, the boredom and bravery- whether manoeuvring through mines i the Mediterranean, chasing convoys in the Atlantic, or strapped into a human underwater torpedo, about to face certain death. The wonder of underwater exploration is described by those who made the journeys- breaking new barriers of the deep in a bathyscope or discovering the wreck of the Titanic.
