Here, with the cooperation of many of the subjects closest confidants and family, Brad Matsen makes clear the full picture of his remarkable life, showing the father, military man, inventor, entrepreneur, and adventurer behind the public face.

Reviews
Advance Praise forJacques Cousteau "Like the subject of this book, Brad Matsen has found his true milieu; the deep ocean. Now he brings his very special brilliance to illuminate the undersea world of Jacques Cousteau. He has done a masterful job in this much-needed, revealing biography of the ocean's most illustrious adventurer, filmmaker, conservationist, and advocate." -Richard Ellis, author ofTuna: A Love StoryandOn Thin Ice: The Changing World of the Polar Bear "Jacques Cousteau was a genius who became an icon that became a legend. His legacy continues every time anyone dons a scuba tank, or even thinks of an undersea image. Matsen's book, perfect for beachside or bedside, is a worthy chronicle of a truly whale-sized life." -Carl Safina, president and cofounder of the Blue Ocean Institute "A marvelous story. Matsen's biography made me realize I knew almost nothing about the incredible inventor, scientist, businessman, explorer, and environmentalist that was Jacques Cousteau. I owe my career as a professional diver to him. Undoubtedly, this biography will inspire a new generation of divers to take to the water." -John Chatterton, celebrated scuba diver and cohost of the television seriesDeep Sea Detectives "I have looked into the sea all my life, and Cousteau has always been there, leading and guiding my journey. But the heroic image of the French explorer who informed, enlightened, and entertained us was as mysterious as the depths he plumbed. Now Brad Matsen shines light on the man behind the icon. A fascinating exploration of a true legend of the sea!" -Richie Kohler, celebrated scuba diver and cohost of the television seriesDeep Sea Detectives, "Matsen's book is eloquently crafted by a man who clearly understands and respects the wonders of the sea." -- Winston-Salem Journal "Absolutely do not miss this book. It is both entertaining and an important slice of history."-- Diver Magazine "Cousteau owned one of the most recognizable faces on the planet. . . . Yet, as Matsen deftly demonstrates, we hardly knew him." - Seattle Times "There are a lot of Cousteau books bits and pieces and many are nonsense. This one is remarkably accurate."--Jean-Michel Cousteau "Cousteau's life was a cautionary tale, and Matsen tells it exceedingly well."-- San Francisco Chronicle "Brad Matsen reminds us that Cousteau earned his fame honestly: He invented the modern understanding of the sea."- Outside Magazine "Revealing."- The Economist "Matsen examines Cousteau with a sensitive eye, qualifying his astounding career and lasting legacy. . . . Environmentalists, divers, and armchair ocean lovers will all soak up this work."- Publishers Weekly "Goes beyond the sea. . . . fills us in on Cousteau's work with the French Resistance during World War II. It also tells of family tragedy and drama."- NY Post "Readers who dive, who are interested in ecology or the oceans, or who simply recognize the name Cousteau, will want to read this full, well-rounded portrait of one of the world's greatest explorers and conservationists."-- Library Journal (Starred Review), "Matsen's book is eloquently crafted by a man who clearly understands and respects the wonders of the sea." --Winston-Salem Journal "Absolutely do not miss this book.
