This is about two of the world's best cavers: American Bill Stone and Ukrainian Alexander Klimchouk... these two men are looking for the same thing: the world's longest deepest cave.
This is a good book, well researched and has action and adventure galore... you can almost feel the water, the noise from the waterfalls and the darkness all around you.
These men and women explorers, experiance hunger, fatigue, hallucinations, injuries and sometimes death on their quest to find the deepest cave in the world.
This is not something I would ever choose to do, but this book gives youo such a good description of what is going on it is like you are there.... one passage describes a caver coming upon thousands of daddy long legs inches from his face, and every time he breathed they'd get aggitated.. (((YIKKS))
if you like action adventure it is the book for you...
