This book was published in the early 1980s, around the time that the Mary Rose Trust was planning an expedition to raise the Mary Rose from where she rested in the Solent outside of Portsmouth Harbour. It contains a history of the ship itself and of the various crews and expeditions that attempted to find her position, as well as the process for recovering and preserving various artefacts aboard. It's a very 1980s book, with lots of black-and-white photos and a sort of grainy feel to the whole thing. The text itself is very readable, but I imagine there are more up-to-date books about the Mary Rose now that the ship has actually been raised and is in a museum in Portsmouth.

The book provides the fascinating background to one of the most important marine excavations of this century. It tells the story of the warship which was the pride of the Tudor navy but sank without firing a shot - and before the horrified eyes of the King himself - in an engagement against the French fleet. Almost all the sailors and archers on board were drowned but the "Mary Rose" and her contents were to be protected by a thick covering of silts - thus preserving a unique storehouse of everyday life on a fighting ship of the sixteenth century.
