About the Book

Ce livre historique peut contenir de nombreuses coquilles et du texte manquant. Les acheteurs peuvent generalement telecharger une copie gratuite scannee du livre original (sans les coquilles) aupres de l'editeur. Non reference. Non illustre. 1859 edition. Extrait: ...general, peu actives; cependant, au mois de juin 1832 et au mois de fevrier 1843, elles ont ete en eruption durant plusieurs semaines, et ont deverse des coulees de lave, larges de cinq a sept milles geographiques, qui atteignaient le pied du MaunaKea.

Ce verre capillaire, qui s'echappe aussi du volcan de Bourbon, est appele, a Hawaii, cheveu de Pele. Pele est la deesse protectrice de la contree. Dana a montre d'une maniere fort ingenieuse que Mauna-Loa n'est pas, pour les iles Sandwich, un volcan central, et que le lac de lave designe sous le nom de Kilauea n'est pas une solfatare (45). Le plus grand diametre du bassin de Kilauea a 15 000 pieds, pres des deux tiers...
