to discuss his latest book Trapped Under the Sea: One Engineering Marvel, Five Men, and a Disaster Ten Miles Into the Darkness which focuses on the massive Boston Harbor project-one of America’s most ambitious and ultimately deadly, civil engineering endeavors undertaken in the past thirty years. Swidey spent five years immersing himself in every aspect of the complex Boston Harbor construction job designed to transform the harbor from an open sewer and national embarrassment into a clean waterway to show case one of the United States most beautiful cities.
