Title information

Out of the Crater


Chronicles of a Volcanologist
Richard V. Fisher
180 pages, 28 half-tones.
Princeton University Press
 
Softcover | 2000 | £11.95 | approx. $24/€16

#111226 | ISBN-10: 0691070172
In the course of the book, we follow Fisher as he descends into the steaming crater of the Soufri re Volcano on the island of St. Vincent, as he conducts research on lava flows on the desolate south shore of the Island of Hawaii, and as he struggles to understand the explosion at Mount St. Helens. We also learn about his pioneering work on pyroclastic flows and surges - the hurricanes of gases, molten lava, and volcanic debris that cause most of the death and destruction when volcanoes explode.
