Two new professional reviews have recently been published. The first, by the on-line diving magazine Scuba Diver Info is exceptionally thorough:
Scuba Diver Info - Book Review: Setting the Hook - A Diver's Return to the Andrea Doria
The second one, by the Midwest Book Review (Reviewer's Bookwatch section), is much shorter and is written by a non-diver. Here is the review in its entirety followed by the link to the site:

9781453734209, $15.99, Setting the Hook, a Diver's Return to the Andrea Doria
A tragedy creates a legend. "Setting the Hook: A Diver's Return to the Andrea Doria" explores the diving legend of the Andrea Doria, a ship that sunk to 240 feet below the water in 1956, proving to be a fascinating discussion for those in the diving world. Seeking to salvage the ship, wealthy adventurer Peter Gimbel sought to restore the ship, a task that was easier said and done. Since then, there has been constant exploration of its rescue and those who dared to work on the dangerous project. "Setting the Hook" is a fascinating read of true adventure, very much recommended.
