<p>William R. Royal gave much of his life to underwater exploration and scientific research involving sharks. Robert F. Burgess, who details Royal's lively adventures, has written many such books explaining the mysteries of the seas and man's underwater efforts to push back its frontiers. Why ride sharks? Bill Royal's first shark was wrestled in to feed his family during the Depression. Later, he risked his life capturing sharks alive for scientists doing human cancer research. Following a trail of shark fossil teeth in 230-foot-deep Florida springs, Royal discovered an underwater prehistoric graveyard that enabled scientists to recover the first remains of Ice Age Man 12,000 years old.</p>
