Fellow divers / free, scuba, technical:
I received an email from Rob Kurson today, announcing the release of his new book. Mr. Kurson as all you divers will recall, is the author of SHADOW DIVERS, the true story about John Chatterton and Richie Kohler as they went about discovering the identity of a mystery German U-Boat off the coast of New Jersey.

I wish Rob best of luck with his new book. He writes the following about it:
Dear Friends,
Hi, its Robert Kurson, author of SHADOW DIVERS.
Im writing to let you know that my new book, CRASHING THROUGH, is being published today. I think its the best work Ive ever done.
Support like yours gave me the confidence to search for another phenomenal true adventure undertaken by an astonishing main character. I found that in CRASHING THROUGH.
The book tells the story of Mike May, a California inventor whod been blind since age three. In 1999, a chance encounter led to amazing news a rare stem cell transplant surgery could restore Mays vision. Most people would have jumped at the chance. May was not like most people.
New vision after a lifetime of blindness is incredibly rare fewer than 20 cases were known to all of history. But it was more than rare. It was always strange and fantastic, a kind of hybrid in which parts of the visual system functioned perfectly, while others worked in ways we could scarcely imagine. Most startling, the results were emotionally devastating for these patients they suffered deep depressions, clawed at the eyes, became furious at their surgeons, even suffered early death.
CRASHING THROUGH tells the story of Mays adventure into new vision. Its an odyssey filled with risk, romance, danger and decisions he knew could cost him his life.
I look at the world differently for knowing Mike May, and I think differently about what it means to really see. If you enjoyed Shadow Divers, Im certain that youll love CRASHING THROUGH. At bottom, its a story about the power of curiosity to change a persons life just the kind of story that moves me the most.
The book is available now in bookstores across the country. It can also be purchased online from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Booksense, by following the links below.
Thanks so much for taking the time to read this, and for supporting my writing. I cant tell you how much that means to me.
With warmest regards,
Robert Kurson
