1905
MANUAL FOR DIVERS
U. S. Navy
Today
there are many ways to dive, but in 1905 there was only one way. The book,
written in 1905, is now available again. This 68-page book contains vintage
photographs, illustrations and standard operating procedures for the hard-hat
divers who braved the depths at the turn of the century. Interesting information
on the thinking of that era as to the make-up of a diver, the equipment, physics
and physiology, and many other unusual requirements.
