About This Item
The dramatic life of the most renowned volcano in history and its legacy of destruction - its ferocity only matched by the stubbornness of the survivors who continually rebuild new cities and villages on the ruins of the old. Today the volcano, the only active volcano in mainland Europe, sits only eight miles from Naples, a modern metropolis of two million people. 189 pages with 18 black and white illustrations. Book and dust jacket in near fine condition.
