Go! Scuba Dive by Monty Halls.
Adult Non-fiction 797.23H
Interested in Scuba Diving? Although scuba diving can be very rewarding, there are important safety precautions that should be taken. Monty Halls does a good job of addressing this by providing both a basic background and instructional information on this extreme sport. The focus of this book is not on photographing marine life of diving sites, but rather is designed as an overview of the sport. The pictures greatly enhance his how-to explanations.
For those who find it frustrating to learn techniques from a book, the book is accompanied with a DVD that provides the same basic information. The DVD is a wonderful addition as it allows the viewer to actually see what is happening. It is important to remember, however, that no amount of studying a book can compare to actually practicing the sport, but this book is a great introduction of what to expect or good for a quick refresher.
