Did you know that there are more than 60 active volcanoes in Europe
today? Or that the longest-existing lava lake is in Ethiopia? Or
that Mount Stromboli off the coast of Italy has been in almost
continuous eruption for the past 2000 years? Illustrated with 200
spectacular photographs, Volcano is a fascinating visual journey
around the globe, selecting the most striking live and extinct
volcanoes from Alaska to Antarctica, from Tanzania to Tasmania,
from Kamchatka in Russia’s far east to Indonesia and the
Philippines. Alongside famous volcanoes such as Mount Etna in
Sicily, Mount Vesuvius on the Italian mainland and Mount St Helens
in Washington State, the book features many lesser known but
equally interesting volcanoes across all the continents. Each entry
is accompanied with a fascinating caption explaining not only the
geological forces at work, but also how the volcano has shaped the
history of the surrounding areas across millennia. Presented in a
landscape format and with more than 190 outstanding colour
photographs of around 100 entries, Volcano is a stunning collection
of images.
