IN OCEANS DEEP Courage, Innovation, and Adventure Beneath the Waves

Actor Jay Snyder voices Bill Streever's blend of personal experience, history, and updates on ocean exploration with both awe and clarity. The author urges listeners toward a new appreciation of oceans. Some listeners might be wary, though, when Snyder is calmly recounting the hazards of free diving, which include spitting up blood and loss of consciousness. The author's enthusiasm when trying free diving himself also comes through. Snyder's voice expresses genuine emotion as he shares the last messages of sailors caught in a submarine explosion. Most listeners won't be able to keep up with Streever--and won't want to. But they'll likely be fascinated as he recounts his tales.
