A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Ancient geologic events come to life through clear description and artistic vision in this dramatic and fascinating story of Maui's birth and development. This book provides basic knowledge to enhance the experience of exploring Maui by describing how the island emerged, was formed, and is still being shaped by nature's forces of volcano, wind, and water. It also tells how human forces have changed the island. By furthering your knowledge of the land, you will gain a better understanding and deeper feeling for it as you learn the geologic past of familiar landmarks.

Maui--How It Came to Be is one of several collaborations between Will Kyselka and Ray Lanterman. They earlier produced the successful and widely acclaimed guide to astronomy, North Star to Southern Cross. Their books are noted for clear and accurate presentation of scientific findings to the general reader.

Description de la librairie

High-Lonesome Books, located in the foothills of the Gila National Forest of southwest New Mexico, has been in business since 1986. We are a home-based publishing firm with over 20 titles in print within the genres of Western Americana and Sporting Books (hunting, fishing, sporting dogs, etc.). Our list of published books is combined with our used, rare and out of print list which currently has about 3,000 titles in stock -- Western Americana, Sporting Books, Natural History, Country Living/Homesteading, Outdoor Adventure/Recreation/Miscellaneous. High-Lonesome Books was the front cover feature story for the September 1998 issue of Mother Earth News. When not publishing or trading in used books we are active homesteaders; we hunt, fish, raise coursing hounds, grown our own food and explore what's left of the rural and wilderness Southwest.
