Book Reviews
"Superb sea tales . . . The author writes beautifully -- historical and technological writing of a high order, as suspenseful and deft about the doomed steamer as the salvage vessels. SHIP OF GOLD IN THE DEEP BLUE SEA is a 24-carat sea classic." The New York Times Book Review
"What a yarn! . . . [Ship of Gold] only takes a few evenings to read, but if you sign on for the cruise, go in knowing that you're going to miss meals and a lot of sleep. . . . Kinder spins a tale as informative as it is knuckle-biting. Who knew you could have this much fun watching other people get rich." --Newsweek
"Ship of Gold is a marvelous tale, with generous portions of history, adventure, intrigue, heroism and high technology interwoven. . . . Gary Kinder can join Jules Verne, Bob Ballard and Tom Clancy in making underwater technology thrilling." --Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Kinder's involving fully realized history of the ship amounts to a treasure in itself." -- Publishers Weekly
"One of the greatest scientific adventure stories of our time. . . . Truly fascinating . . . a tribute to good, old fashioned American ingenuity and grit-with a big dose of Titanic-like adventure to boot. . . . [A] well-told tale." --Kirkus Reviews (starred)
"Ship of in the Deep Blue Sea is nonfiction treasure. . . . The book takes hold of you from page one and never lets go. . . . History and heroics, science and suspense-Ship of Gold has that blockbuster feel." --Sailing
"Engaging, worthy of the best fiction and enough action to shame James Bond." --Men's Journal
"Kinder's Book is an incredible minute-by-minute account of the ill-fated steamship, [the] Central America. . . .Ship of Gold is a fresh adventure story and exciting history." --Ocean Navigator
