Hardbound. Condition: Fair. Description: Primarily a photo book (black and white) with extensive captions. From the introduction: ''The intent of this book is to facilitate the comparison of Hawaiian and Martian volcanic features. Between 1976 and 1979, the Viking mission to Mars acquired numerous remarkably clear pictures of the Martian surface. The pictures are full of bizarre and exotic features but some of the more comprehensible are those of the large volcanoes. The Maritain volcanoes are enormous by terrestrial standards. Despite the difference in size, the Martian and Hawaiian volcanoes have numerous characteristics in common. Striking differences also exist such s the apparent lack of radial rift zones on some Martian volcanoes and the paucity of cinder and spatter cones. The intent of this book is to bring together some of best photographs of Martian and Hawaiian volcanic features so that the reader can make their own comparison and reach their own conclusions. We have deliberately avoided interpretations and kept the Hawaii and Mars sections separate to avoid imposing an interpretation that might be implicit in the association of pictures.''
