An Underwater Guide to Hawaii by Ann Fielding

Hawaii's isolation has produced a large number of species found nowhere else in the world. This combination of unusual species and volcanic formations gives the Hawaiian marine environment its distinct appearance. Beginning with a survey of the geological formation of the Hawaiian islands and the reef building power of the coral, this guide to the underwater environment of Hawaii describes many of the types of marine life likely to be encountered by snorkellers and scuba divers, and explains how this world came to be.

Ed Robinson, a local author, has gathered over 200 vintage black-and-white images to convey the narrative of Summers County in words and pictures. Robinson, who worked for the US Department of Transportation as an international aviation economist, is now retired and resides in Princeton, West Virginia with his wife, Susan.
