3/5. Account of the history of deep-sea exploration, before turning to the author’s career which includes the discovery of the Titanic’s wreckage, among other things. Way more interested in things than people. He’d be like, ‘let me tell you how this capsule worked that people went half a mile down underwater in,’ and I’d be like ‘okay, but tell me about the maniacs who volunteered for this, because they sound more interesting.’ You can also tell that he is breezing past huge personal slapfights that convulsed the entire field, and on the one hand, he’s not grinding axes, how refreshing. On the other, it’s a bit bloodless.
Interesting stuff, though.
