Author Description

This is our second title on the State of Hawaii, concentrating on the southern, and most popular section in better detail than would be possible on a map of the entire state. The largest island is Big Island, where active volcanoes erupt fairly regularly and lava flow are common. I remember standing on the main coastal highway, which was blocked at the time by lava flow. Standing within a couple of feet of an active flowing river of red hot lava was an amazing experience. The other major island on this map is Oahu (We have chosen to ignore the '). This is the most popular island in the state, having Honolulu 1:35,000), Waikiki and Pearl Harbour, along with such attractions as the Dole Pineapple Plantation. The map has an excellent map of all of Honolulu, plus smaller insets of Kailua-Kona (1:30,000 scale) and Hilo (1:30.000). A map of Maui and the Northern islands will probably come out next year. Printed on waterproof and tearproof paper, that also allows for removable markings in the map (with erase markers / waterbased pen).
