This is an incredibly rare book written by the members of the Undersea Research and Development Group of the French Navy. This was one of the first books that Jacques Cousteau was involved with and thus he is is listed as third author (something he never allowed to happen after!)
This is the first Edition 1957 copy complete with the original Dust-jacket (which is par...ticularly rare to find) and it also includes the ' table of consecutive dives' in the rear pocket attached to the rear inner board.
This is a piece of early Scuba Diving history and would suit a serious collector.
