Sinossi
Il racconto appassionante di alcune delle incredibili avventure che Cussler ha vissuto con i volontari della NUMA
Creatore del personaggio di Dirk Pitt e fuoriclasse della suspense avventurosa, Clive Cussler ha realizzato il suo sogno: la NUMA (National Underwater and Marine Agency) infatti non è soltanto l’organizzazione per le ricerche sottomarine per cui lavorano i suoi eroi, ma è anche una «vera» società con la quale Cussler ha effettuato spedizioni in ogni parte del mondo. Navi fantasma, ideale seguito di Cacciatori del mare, introduce il lettore ad alcuni dei momenti più emozionanti della storia della marineria e del recupero di relitti sommersi, dalla guerra civile americana a oggi.
Un libro che appassionerà i lettori di Dirk Pitt, ma che conquisterà anche tutti coloro che amano il mare e le storie che lo circondano.

Recensioni
Cussler intertwines historical commentary into the stories of the lost wrecks... if you're a fan, this book will captivate you stem to stern.
After a good first book but maybe a little too much focused on the Civil War, this second book fixes it with 14 new wreck stories to discover, from 17 century to World War II and all around the world, with not only ships but also a plane, a dirigible, a plane and even a pair of famous cannons.

First of all, I want to point out that. I really like this type of content. Boating, yachting, sailing, fishing and anything that falls under the concept of a marina. I leave this information below for those who want to read it. A look at Boat and Yacht History: the ships we encounter today are; They Leggi tutto
Clive Cussler and his group from NUMA - the further adventures. More historical wrecks found - and some not found. Several more ships involved in the Civil War. A ship of French explorers trying to find where the Mississippi enters the Gulf of Mexico (they missed and wrecked in Texas islands). Also, Leggi tutto
Similar to volume I this is a combination of factionalized real life events plus the search for the wrecks or remains of the vessel or other artifact. I loved the first book and this is more of the same. I am always surprised at the important historical events are have faded from our collective memo Leggi tutto
In typical Clive Cussler's style, the narrative is entertaining and adventurous. I love the backstory before Clive's escapades. Even though I know all of the back stories end in tragedy I am inclined to root for the the shipmates and the aeronautics and the passengers. The stories were captivating a Leggi tutto
Nice to see that Cussler is using his royalties for something that benefits society. I also liked that not all of these searches were successful. Nothing too groundbreaking here but it's interesting and entertaining.
I really enjoy reading about their experiences finding these "Lost Shipwrecks". I enjoys hearing about the historical significance of each Find or even the ones that evade them. Hopefully the NUMA team will continue sharing these exciting experiences with the whole world.
