Noted Maryland Scientist Peter R. Vogt, author of Divine Gust of Wind and several children's books, takes his readers  to ocean deaths and exotic realms recapping his career as an ocean geologist. His memoir recounts chasing ice, climbing mountains and volcanoes on three volcanoes before devoting himself as a scientist exploring Earth's final frontier, the  depths of our oceans. "Peppered with amusing anecdotes and thoughtful letters home to Randi, his beloved wife, this is a remarkable journey of a restless man questing for answers, a quest that continues to this day"—Sherrod Sturroc, Director Emeritus, Calvert Marine Museum.
