The Universe Below by William J. Broad is subtitled Discovering the Secrets of the Deep Sea. The author takes readers on an epic journey to the depths of the sea. He takes them on epic dives and expeditions to the Azores, the Titanic, where we meet vampire squids, gulper eels, and other bizarre life. The book is finely illustrated along with the engaging text. The author puts forth we will either destroy or save the last frontier on Earth and reveals the great mysteries along with the dangers, including deadly radioactive debris of then Cold War.
