The title of Brad Duncan and Martin Gibbs's 2015 book, Please God Send Me a Wreck, rapidly conveys the contradiction between wrecks as crises and wrecks as boons— savior and salvor, altruism and opportunity. This third volume in the Advisory Council on Underwater Archaeology (ACUA) and Society for Historical Archaeology (SHA) series When the Land Meets the Sea represents the work of the state maritime archaeologist (New South Wales Heritage Branch) and a professor of Australian archaeology (University of New England), respectively. This Springer-published set covers archaeological work on single, or a collection of related, sites that encompass both underwater and terrestrial investigations. The recent addition, in the genre of anthropologically oriented archaeological essays, adopts the nineteenth- and twentieth-century communities of Queenscliffe, in the southern Australian state of Victoria, as a case study. It casts the community as the central protagonist in a landscape where shipping mishaps take center stage. Pilot, lighthouse, hydrographic, lifeboat, and customs services act as the key players, orchestrating responses to shipping mishaps encompassing stranding, wrecking, rescue, salvage, looting, caching, beachcombing, and souveniring.

请上帝寄给我沉船：对 19 世纪澳大利亚社区沉船的回应。布拉德·邓肯和马丁·吉布斯。纽约：Springer，2015 年，243 页。129.00 美元，布料。ISBN 978-1-4939-2641-1。

布拉德·邓肯和马丁·吉布斯 2015 年出版的书《请上帝寄给我一个残骸》的书名迅速传达了残骸作为危机与残骸作为恩赐之间的矛盾——救世主与救助、利他主义与机会。水下考古咨询委员会 (ACUA) 和历史考古学会 (SHA) 系列中的第三卷《当陆地遇到大海》代表了州海洋考古学家（新南威尔士州遗产分会）和澳大利亚考古学教授（新英格兰大学），分别。这个 Springer 出版的集合涵盖了单个或一系列相关地点的考古工作，包括水下和陆地调查。最近添加的，在以人类学为导向的考古论文流派中，采用澳大利亚南部维多利亚州昆斯克利夫的 19 世纪和 20 世纪社区作为案例研究。它将社区塑造为航运事故占据中心舞台的景观的中心主角。引航员、灯塔、水文测量、救生艇和海关服务作为关键参与者，协调应对包括搁浅、失事、救援、打捞、抢劫、缓存、海滩搜查和纪念品在内的航运事故。
