Reflections on a Summer Sea by Trevor Norton

Although not all about diving, the book does have some diving related anecdotes. What makes this book a darn good read is the fact it's set in South West Ireland and tells in detail the way of life and characters of the region. For those lucky to have been to that part of Ireland it will bring back happy memories of the diving, the people and the crack.

Neutral Bouyancy by Tim Ecott, Penguin

A brilliant book that takes you through the modern day diving adventures of the author Tim Ecott. Tim Ecott also has done research into diving history on a personal basis too – with first hand accounts from several diving pioneers, and has cleverly combined both elements to produce a fascinating, exhilierating read. It's as informative as it is exciting and I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
