Price: $32.00
Customer Review:
Upon assignment to a certain organization...this book was required reading. I learned why later. Worth ten times the cost, if you glean and apply the material inside. This book has been out for years and does not go "on sale" from what I can see. No matter, buy it at full retail and you won't be... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
After my first trip through one of the sections of Mammoth Cave, I was addicted to this world. My husband turned me on to this man, Floyd Collins, who I have never heard of.

from Grand Central Publishing
Customer Review:
I still recommend this book highly. The story of these explorers is simply amazing. As someone who is very very claustrophobic (my worst fear is being stuck in some confined space), I have to be an "armchair" explorer, and this book makes you confront these fears. In the end it's very rewarding.more info | 4.5 / 5.0

This book was ridiculous. The only reason why I read it is that I live in Carlsbad, NM, where the book takes place, and I always enjoy reading books about places I have experienced firsthand.
The book centers around Jack Whittaker, a caver who discovers a giant new cavern in the New Mexico... more info | 3.5 / 5.0
