Many people know about Hawai'i's volcanic crater, Diamond Head, but very few are aware of the crater's colourful past. Denby Fawcett's definitive book breathes life into the iconic but silent landmark, which some geologists consider the most perfect example of a volcanic tuff cone in the world. The book includes a complete trail guide as well as information on the ancient Hawaiians who erected five religious temples on the slopes of the crater.
