Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Great whites, hammerheads, and bull sharks are some of the fierce, hungry predators lurking in the pages of this book. Shark enthusiasts are invited to take the plunge and learn what's involved in shark diving. While most shark diving keeps participants safely in a cage, that hasn't stopped sharks from trying to get in. Readers will love the interesting information included about different shark species (such as the tiger shark caught with a suit of armor in its stomach!) and understand the true danger of this sport with every close-up shark image.
Includes bibliographical references (page 31) and index.
