Inhaltsangabe

With this book, the eyes of the Pucci's bring us closer to one of the most impressive sights of nature. The Pucci's have gone beyond the nine most famous volcanoes to capture splendid images of 20 of the most significant ones in Costa Rica. The life that pulses in their craters, the millennial footprints of their explosions, the thousands of colors of their lagoons, the weight of their marks on rivers and cities are captured here and for centuries to come. The texts of Jaime Gamboa contribute information on the origin of the names, data, legends and tales that complement this extraordinary visual journey.
