Passed without comment and the fact that I have not got my free copy of the
book yet;-)) The author TL is an old Army Sapper diver friend of mine.

There are three main directions with which a person can pursue the activity
of diving. These are 'Commercial Diving' as a job, 'Military Diving' as a
job/qualification to aid the Armed Forces in their aims and as a
'Recreational Diver' as a sport or hobby pastime.

Tony Liddicoat is one of the very rare individuals who has pursued all three
activities and has reached the top in each of them.

In this book he writes down his progression through all three disciplines,
managing to combine and mix all three during his nearly 50year diving
career. As you will read, his diving adventures have taken him around the
world, to every ocean and to many different lands. He has experienced the
extremes of climate and terrain and has undertaken many challenges. These
vary from diving, the inside of a Nuclear Reactor, placing and detonating
explosive charges, searching for bodies in sewers or training potential
divers on a tropical island.

The book covers Tony's diving life and we re-dive all his old haunts with
him, without exaggeration or embellishment.

It prompted one of the typists to state, "I don't know how you're still
alive?" such was the response when reading parts of the book.

Sit back and enjoy.
