Glass and Water is the first book on underwater photography for freedivers. With contributions from expert underwater photographers this book teaches the skills, knowledge and equipment necessary to successfully pursue underwater photography without scuba gear.

Scuba divers are dying in caves, on wrecks, and in open water. These are not explorers pushing the boundaries of the known world, and they are not scientist seeking to prove new concepts and expand our understanding of the marine environment. These are ordinary divers. The man buying a coffee ahead of us in the morning; the woman we see walking her dog on our street. Brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles. Someone's wife or husband, mom or dad. Just regular people who are diving for the fun of it. These deaths are tragic, life-altering, devastating, a terrible waste. Worst of all, they are totally unnecessary, a sad mistake and often completely avoidable. In Staying Alive, Steve Lewis tells us there are very few diving accidents. Most of the heart-breaking events claiming the lives of scores of recreational divers are mistakes that result from established limits being ignored. Lewis revisits the survival guidelines originally proposed by the legendary Sheck Exley and shows us in eight straightforward steps how simple it is for sport and technical divers to avoid becoming a statistic.

THE MISSING ONES is the true account of the disappearance of Blanche and Russell Warren. The young hard working couple disappeared in 1929, seemingly without a trace, while drive from Port Angeles, Washington to their cabin 60 miles away. Eagerly awaiting their arrival, were two young sons, ages 12 and 14. An investigation by the Sheriff's Department failed to find the Warrens. However, clues discovered by investigators led to the belief that the Warren's had driven into Lake Crescent. The case was largely forgotten until 1954 when a recently formed dive club stumbled upon the story. In 2001, they passed the story on to National Park Ranger divers stationed at Olympic National Park. This is the story of how the Warrens disappeared, the 1929 investigation, how the dive club found the story and how the Park Rangers and the dive team finally solved the case.
