Modern Spearfishing
Publisher: A.S.Barnes, New York, USA., 1955.
Enlarged, revised, blue jacket, no ISBN, # but LCC# 55-6648 - (note one edition I have does not have a LCC or ISBN #) also published in Canada but I have never seen a Canadian edition. Name change to VANE Ivanovic |
Vane also published "LX, memoirs of a Yugoslav" in 1977 published in US by Harcourt, Brace and Jovanovic (Jovanovic is a fellow Yugoslav) ISBN# 0-15-154797-1. Vane devotes 4 pages to spear fishing and 4 pages to sharks in this book. Never the less it is enjoyable reading.
Vane passed on about 3-4 years back in England (about 1999). Interesting note, Reg Valentine certified him as a diver about ten years ago - seems he didn't have a "C" card and rules are rules especially in old England.
