The Deepest Map chronicles the global efforts to map the oceans' floor and obtain an accurate reading of the vast underwater terrain. Documenting Inuit-led crowdsourced mapping in the Arctic and a Texan's quest to become the first man to dive to the deepest point in each ocean, this book explores the world's oceans and fraught questions around deep sea mining.
