Review Praise for The Third Dive: An Investigation Into the Death of Rob Stewart: "A real-life underwater mystery of why Rob Stewart died. Like the rebreather itself, the book mixes facts, characters and human foibles into a fascinating yarn about Stewarts death. Scuba divers will appreciate the discussion of rebreathers and the stories of Stewarts many dives. The book gives real insights into human foibles that lead to disaster." --William McKeever, filmmaker, founder of Ocean Guardian, and author of Emperors of the Deep: Sharks -- The Oceans Most Mysterious, Most Misunderstood, and Most Important Guardians "When Rob Stewart stepped on board my ship Ocean Warrior in 2002 I saw a man driven by three things: science, adventure and a deep love for things that many people saw as dangerously dark monsters. It was Robs daunting ambition to change the worlds view of sharks. He wanted us to see what he saw--beauty, mystery, and in his own words, perfection. Fifteen years later, thanks to his skills as filmmaker and storyteller, combined with his courage and expertise as a diver, he realized the fruition of his quest when he succeeded in changing the worlds perception of sharks. It was a conservation crusade of passion for which he sacrificed his life. I participated in the search that found his body on the seafloor, an event out of which rose questions, mysteries and conspiracy theories. Robert Osborne set out to find answers, and in this book The Third Dive we now have a conclusion to the life story of one of the great heroes of marine conservation." --Captain Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society Details ISBN1771603550 Short Title The Third Dive Pages 216 Language English Year 2020 ISBN-10 1771603550 ISBN-13 9781771603553 Format Hardcover Publisher Rocky Mountain Books Imprint Rocky Mountain Books Place of Publication Surrey, BC Country of Publication Canada Author Robert Osborne Publication Date 2020-12-24 UK Release Date 2020-12-24 Illustrations colour photo section Subtitle An Investigation Into the Death of Rob Stewart DEWEY 333.72092 Audience General AU Release Date 2021-01-17 Edition Description New edition We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
