In The Great Museum of the Sea, archaeologist, museum director, television host, journalist, and award-winning author James Delgado takes the reader on a personal tour of the world of shipwrecks, including many of the more than one hundred lost ships he has personally discovered, investigated, excavated and shared in print and on screen. In these pages, Delgado explains why people care about shipwrecks--and why we have incorporated the concept of a shipwreck, and shipwrecks themselves, into our religions and cultures since the earliest civilizations.
