Shark Bytes

John Bantin has been picked up by a large tiger shark and swum off with more than once. In this beautiful book, he recounts these and many other tales of his diving with several different species of sharks over three decades. Accompanied by his own photography, these captivating, spectacular and sometimes shocking encounters show the reader what it is like to get up close and personal to these bizarre and beautiful creatures. The sharks covered range from the great whale sharks to the small blacktip reef shark, in locations extending to all corners of the globe.

"I don't offer myself as an expert regarding sharks," Bantin says. "I simply offer myself as a shark witness, and in Shark Bytes, I delve into the way my own attitude to and understanding of sharks has developed during the intervening years. It's about how I grew to love diving with sharks."
