About Clive Cussler

During a very active, interesting life, author. Clive Cussler became interested in writing. He was in the Air Force during the Korean War followed by a career in advertising writing award winning commercials. In 1996 he wrote his first notification work, The Sea Hunters. From that work he was awarded a Doctor of Letters degree, with his work being accepted in lieu of a thesis. Then, in 2002 he was awarded the Naval Heritage Award for his efforts in the subject of marine exploration. He is also a Fellow in three prestigious marine organizations.

In keeping with his marine interests, his books revolved around character, Dirk Pitt, who was a marine engineer, government agent, and adventurer. His first two novels were more traditional maritime thrillers, but the third, Raise the Titanic, established his iconic style.....a blend of high adventure and high technology involving villains, sunken treasure, and beautiful women.

Cussler writes in the style like fellow authors, Michael Crichton, creating techno - thrillers that do not depend on any certain settings with great spectacular and outlandish plot devices. He has had more than seventeen titles on the New York Times fiction best seller list.

Obvio......more

First of all, I want to point out that. I really like this type of content. Boating, yachting, sailing, fishing and anything that falls under the concept of a marina. I leave this information below for those who want to read it. A look at Boat and Yacht History: the ships we encounter today are; They......more

Goodreads review by Adam on October 19, 2024

I found the vignettes to be interesting, but early on I was concerned about the accuracy of the information contained in the book. This is a non-fiction book that is supposed to recount historic shipwrecks, before focusing on Cussler's attempts to locate and explore them. In the course of the 'flash......more

Goodreads review by Cara on September 06, 2021

Clive Cussler and his group from NUMA - the further adventures. More historical wrecks found - and some not found. Several more ships involved in the Civil War. A ship of French explorers trying to find where the Mississippi enters the Gulf of Mexico (they missed and wrecked in Texas islands). Also,......more
