"Kalapana, on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi, was famed the world over for its beautiful, palm-lined black sand beach at Kaimu. Situated on the fringe of Kilauea, one of the world's most active volcanoes, a thriving community of native Hawaiian families called this area home. In the late 1980's and early 1990's, much of the area was covered by lava including the beach at Kaimu, the village of Kalapana and Punaluʻu, the swimming pond referred to as Queen's Bath. Hawaiian residents share their poignant memories of this special area..."--Back cover.
