Steve Zissou?
It recently occured to me that the film "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou" (my personal favorite movie) is based largely off of the life of Jaques-Yves Cousteau. Anyone who knows the movie will see immediately the almost comic likeness of himself and Zissou. Besides that though, "Three Adventures" is filled with retro-esque pictures and commentaries about sea life. Sea life! Who doesn't love ...

The Undersea Discoveries of Jacques-Yves Cousteau: the Whale, the Shark, Dolphins (3 Volumes)

Jacques-Yves & Philippe Diole Cousteau

Arrowood Press, 1987

A Trilogy of the finest works.
Jacques Cousteau will forever remain the man who gave the world scuba diving. Whilst both his work and his films are legendary, several of his early books have stood the test of time to provide the reader with a relevant insight into marine creatures - even though the book itself may have been published over 30 years ago. Three of Cousteau's finest books were; Dolphins, Shark (Splendid Savage ...

A book to give you Gold Fever.

This is a gripping tale - told only as the legendary Jacques Cousteau could tell and one ...

Octopus and Squid: The Soft Intelligence

Jacques Yves Cousteau, Philippe Diole

A & W Pub, 1978

A Fantastic Treasure For Your Library
Cousteau's lifelong love of the ocean lives on! He and Philippe Diole wrote this very non-technical book that does a nice, thorough job of describing the general life and features of the octopus, with one chapter on the squid. (So if you love the squid, this is probably not your book.) Written in 1973, the book is still relevant at the beginning of the 21st century. Great full-page color ...

Chief Diver of "Calypso"

Philippe Diole, Albert Falco

Littlehampton Book Services Ltd, 1977

One man's lifetime of incredible adventures.
If any modern enthusiastic scuba diver had experienced just one of the many diving adventures recounted in this book - they would be dining out on that story for the rest of their life. Incredible as it may seem, however, each and every one of these outstanding diving adventures happened to one man. His name was Albert Falco and his occupation was Chief Diver on board the ship Calypso under the ...
