Diving Almanac & Yearbook

Diving Almanac & Yearbook 2007Now here’s something every diver should have - the Diving Almanac & Yearbook by Jeffrey J. Gallant, published by Porbeagle Press.

I have the 2007 edition and it’s brill! Chock-full of useful information about diving, and refreshingly for an American publication, covers an impressive proportion of the entire planet. Europe, for instance!

Excellent value at £11 for 550 pages. I’ll post an extensive review soon.

  1. Hello Paul,

    Thank you for your kind words. I look forward to reading your review and your suggestions for next year’s edition of DAY.

    1. Hello Jeffrey,

      Your book is currently in my “to read” pile, next to my desk, underneath a copy of Immanuel Kant’s “Critique of Pure Reason” and above George Dyson’s “Darwin Among The Machines”.

      I’ve put DAY on top now, so I’ll likely get a start on the review proper this week depending on my work schedule.

      I have dipped in a few times - I like the “Diving By Country” chapter. I still haven’t checked to see if I’m in “Notable Persons” but I doubt it - I’m just a humble DM :D

  2. I’ve spent a fair amount of time with the DAY 2007 now, and there’s a problem - a BIG problem. As soon as I take it out to read around divers, it inevitably ends up being read by someone else!

    I can’t praise it much more than that. Buy your own, leave mine alone!
