Synopsis"Donald Shomette, the marine archeologist who wrote this book, is fascinated by shipwrecks in the Chesapeake. He lists over 1,800 of them between 1608 and 1978, chronologically identified by name and location, and classified by type of ship and manner of loss. Shomette describes in detail some 150 of these losses, starting with colonial times and ending with the sinking of USCG (cutter) Cuyahoga in October 1978". -- The Washington Times Magazine, Tells the stories of ships that have sunk because of war or bad weather in the Chesapeake Bay, and the efforts to recover them.
