History of United States Naval Operations in World War II 15 Volume Set
Source: Amazon
Author: Samuel Eliot Morison
- From an Amazon reader: "While the official Army history of the war is the series of 'Green Books,' many of them dry as dust, Morsion's Navy history is a thrilling acount. The Pacific battles are especially thrilling, but Morsion covers the entire war on all oceans." (2001)

Encyclopedia of Underwater and Maritime Archaeology
Source: Amazon
Author: James P. Delgado (editor)
- From an Amazon reader: "Discovered this book in a library yesterday and immediately ordered it from Amazon. If anyone were seriously interested in Nautical Archaeology this should be the first book to get. Anyone studying this subject should make sure they have access to it, whether in a nearby library or in their personal library. Very comprehensive and well written." (1998)

Shipwrecks in the Americas
Source: Amazon
Author: Robert F. Marx
- From an Amazon reader: "This is not a book for the casual reader -- the text on underwater archaeology can be somewhat dense and technical, and the listings of shipwrecks are encyclopedic, not narrative. However, if you are a wreck diver, shipwreck enthusiast or archaeologist, this is a useful reference volume." (1994)

The Florida Keys: A History and Guide
Source: Rand McNally
Author: Joy Williams
- "Almost as much a novel as a guidebook, The Florida Keys: A History & Guide is well worth reading regardless of whether you're planning on visiting the region. ... From the more well-traveled destinations like Key Largo and Key West to comparatively hidden spots like the Florida Bay backcountry and the Dry Tortugas, author Joy Williams presents an exquisitely detailed perspective on the Keys."
