Review:
"James Delgado does a splendid job as a cultural historian in showing how the legend of a brave but doomed defence, supported by the intervention of the gods, shaped national identity over seven centuries" (Tablet)
"Dredging not only the sea but also historical records, Delgado tells us something new - some of it speculative but most of it richly authentic - about a great nautical adventure" (The Times)
"Engaging and highly readable" (Guardian)
"One finishes the book ready to strap on mask and tanks to dive for the buried remains of the shops that still hold more Mongol secrets" (Times Literary Supplement)
"Delgado's knowledge of water and his archaeological passion for retrieving what history has scattered across sea beds from San Francisco to Vietnam" (Literary Review)
