Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Bowdoin Quill, Vol. 3: January, 1899
We spent the night at Subashiri, the village at the foot of the mountain. Starting next morning before sunrise, we saw a new and splendid transformation. The dawning light, striking the bare lava that clothes the mountain slopes, turned the whole mass to amethyst. Then came the first red sunlight and changed the amethyst to a gigantic ruby, gleaming against the sky.
