Extract
Perhaps no district of equal area could be named in which so many instructive illustrations of volcanic action may be witnessed as the beautiful island of Ischia. Although only about six miles long by four broad, yet this island exhibits a great central volcanic mountain,—named “Epomeo”—surrounded by numerous parasitical cones and craters, which, alike in their features and their products, present the most interesting variations.
