Publisher Description:
Enter the realm of Pele, goddess of fire: mountainsides ablaze; fountains of incandescence; molten lakes that glow in the twilight; bubbles of lava exploding and showers of volcanic glass. Where the flow meets the ocean, pillars of acid-laden steam rise from the boiling sea. The land you walk over may be only hours old. In this sacred and unpredictable territory, anything can happen. Make your journey in the company of two guides, whose combined knowledge and passion is incomparable. Internationally renowned volcano photographer G. Brad Lewis, whose work has appeared in National Geographic, LIFE, and Newsweek, offers us a panoply of sublime glimpses into the heart of creation. These images capture Pele in all her moods, a variety of splendor only a few have seen first-hand. Volcanologist and educator Jim Kauahikaua shares his unique knowledge of both science and Hawaiian myth as he narrates these awesome events through both ancient and modern eyes.
