This book is one of my favorites.....It's all about the CRAZY diving that Captain and his buddies do on the rigs in Louisiana..... It has quite a bit of personal stories from the author but does talk a lot about the early days of SCUBA in LA and Cousteau's visit to New Orleans and his discussion on spearfishing....If you are looking for technical,scientific, well written, big words, flashy illustrations...don't bother with this book....If you want to laugh and sometimes nod in agreement with these speargun cowboys it's a sure thing.
