Out of the Depths explores all aspects of shipwrecks across 4,000
years, examining their historical context and significance, and
showing how shipwrecks can be time capsules, shedding new light on
long-departed societies and civilizations. Alan G. Jamieson not
only informs readers of the technological developments over the
last sixty years that have made the true appreciation of shipwrecks
possible, but covers shipwrecks in culture, maritime archaeology,
treasure hunters and their environmental impacts. Although
shipwrecks have become less common in recent decades, their
implications have become more wide-ranging: since the 1960s,
foundering supertankers have caused massive environmental
disasters, and in 2021 the blocking of the Suez Canal by the giant
container ship Ever Given had a serious impact on global trade.
