The Atlas of Shipwreck and Treasure

by Nigel Pickford

Takes a voyage of discovery into the hidden world of shipwrecks and treasure. The book allows readers to sail with the crews who met their fate in dangerous and often uncharted waters, loot with the pirates and search for treasure with the salvage teams. Divided into two sections, the first part offers readers an illustrated account of 40 of the most interesting shipwrecks throughout history, plus 14 feature spreads on particular themes such as pirates and privateers. The second section contains 20 large-scale pictorial maps that plot the locations of over 1400 wrecks around the world together with information on each.
