    Beskrivning

    The extraordinary story of the entrepreneur who pioneered Red Sea dive tourism with a cast of unforgettable characters. How a diving school in a train carriage at the edge of the desert became a global destination.In a groundbreaking era of uncharted dives, historical discoveries, and remarkable encounters, Howard Rosenstein unearthed sunken treasures, from Roman coins to unmapped depths, while navigating the complexities of a region still marked by conflict. His adventures were interwoven with brushes with underwater legends, authors, photographers, and world leaders, and he found himself a player in the delicate dance of peace negotiations. Through his pioneering dive centers, Howard ignited a passion for the underwater world in a generation, hoping this shared magic would endure, even as the tides of peace brought inevitable change.
