Sea of DreamersBy Phil Trupp |
Today, it seems we know more about the dark side of the moon than we do about the Earth's seafloor, which covers three-quarters of our planet. Taking on the major mysteries of the deep, author/explorer Phil Trupp invites us on a personal journey to explore a world within a world: one of hidden mountains and glowing volcanoes larger than any on Earth and a land of alien creatures living miles below the ocean surface. In dramatic, nonscientific prose, he explains this virtually unknown universe.
Trupp's firsthand and sometimes controversial accounts take us behind the scenes of the bizarre and often rancorous world of ocean exploration where ego is as dramatic as the sea itself. Who are these explorers and what are they really like? And beyond Earth's watery realm, Sea of Dreamers takes a critical look at outer space, where possible new seas and interplanetary life-forms wait to be discovered. This book will change the way you look at the sea and the stars and those who endeavor to explore them.
