Pele : goddess of Hawaii's volcanoes / writing, art & design by Herb Kawainui Kane.
"Possessing the power to create new land, Pele also has a volcanic personality--an impetuous, lusty nature, jealous, unpredictable, capable of sudden fury and great violence. Yet she can also be gentle, loving, and as serene as her forests of ferns and flowering trees."--Page 4 of cover
"Goddess of Hawai'i's volcanoes, Pele lives in Hawaiian hearts and minds as the supreme personification of volcanic majesty and power. Within the Hawaiian cosmos all natural forces are regarded as life forces, related to human life. Possessing the power to create new land, Pele also has a volcanic personality - an impetuous, lusty nature, jealous, unpredictable, capable of sudden fury and great violence. Yet she can also be gentle, loving, and as serene as her forests of ferns and flowering trees. Here are myths, legends, romances, and folktales of the most fascinating goddess of old Hawai'i"--Back cover
