Shipwrecks around Yeu Island - Volume 1, The First World War

Shipwrecks around Yeu Island - Volume 1, The First World War by Association Anges

Summary:

For several years, the wrecks of the First World War around the island of Yeu are visited by many divers. But what do we know about these wrecks? How can we make non-divers discover them? Why so many shipwrecks?

The association ANGES, based on the island of Yeu, has gathered in this book, after many years of research, the stories of these wrecks and placed them in their historical context. Through this book we will also show them to you as we see them. It is a journey not only in the past but also in the present that we propose you.

By the effects of time these wrecks will soon disappear and it is then urgent to tell their stories so that they do not become only pieces of metal at the bottom of the sea. These dramas are part of our heritage and must remain forever in the collective memory.
