Fast shipping, packaged perfectly with care, excellent communication, and great assistance. Item was listed "very good", but was in excellent shape. I used to borrow this from the library as a kid, been trying to buy an excellent copy as an adult. Decided to randomly try my luck again with searching and behold I see this listing with pictures of the actual product. Seller was awesome with providing additional images, and very helpful. Thanks so much!

SHIP OF GOLD in the Deep Blue Sea
In September 1857, the SS Central America, a side-wheel steamer carring nearly six hundred passengers returning from the California Gold Rush, foundered in a hurricane and sank two hundred miles off the Carolina coast. Over four hundred lives and twenty-one tons of california gold were lost. In the 1980s, a young engineer from Ohio set out to do what no one, not even the United States Navy, had been able to do; establish a working presence on the deep-ocean floor and open it to science, archaeology, history, medicine, and recovery. After years of intensive efforts, Tommy Thompson and the Columbus-America Discovery Group found the Central America in eight thousand feet of water, and in October 1989 they sailed into Norfolk with her recovered treasure; gold coins, bars, nuggets, and dust. ... In September 1857, the SS Central America, a side-wheel steamer carring nearly six hundred passengers returning from the California Gold Rush, foundered in a hurricane and sank two hundred miles off the Carolina coast. Over four hundred lives and twenty-one tons of california gold were lost. In the 1980s, a young engineer from Ohio set out to do what no one, not even the United States Navy, had been able to do; establish a working presence on the deep-ocean floor and open it to science, archaeology, history, medicine, and recovery. After years of intensive efforts, Tommy Thompson and the Columbus-America Discovery Group found the Central America in eight thousand feet of water, and in October 1989 they sailed into Norfolk with her recovered treasure; gold coins, bars, nuggets, and dust. Life magazine called it "the greatest treasure ever found." Now Gary Kinder tells for the first time this extraordinary tale. In a gripping narrative, the author re-creates the five days at sea in a rising hurricane and recounts the heroism of men like Captain William Herndon, the heartbreak of loss and separation for newlyweds like Addie and Ansel Easton, the daring rescue of women and children by a passing brig, and the eventual sinking of the Central America. I like this book because it is a true story.

Great gift for analytical minds
If you know a tinkerer, an engineer, or anyone who loves problem solving the impossible, buy this book. If you know anyone struggling with the challenges and obstacles placed between their daily reality and their dreams, but this book. Not only is the book filled with colorful, living history that breathes life to the Gold Rush, it details the compulsively analytical mind, genius inventions, and tireless efforts of Tommy Thompson, the low-key hero of the expedition. His attempts to find and recover history intact from unworkable depths in the harshest conditions are fascinating. Tommy went where few had gone before and did so with relative pennies instead of unlimited deep pockets. A thoroughly enjoyable non-fiction read that reaches far beyond the well-written story.If you know a tinkerer, an engineer, or anyone who loves problem solving the impossible, buy this book.
