March 7th 1944. Almost everybody left
the small village of San Sebastiano al Vesuvio, disheartened
by that image of lava coming down from the volcano and covering
their houses and their memories. Many of them, proud of their
own land, deeply attached to their roots, refused to see their
village wiped out. That is how in a part of the community
consciousness arouse and a town committee was set up. This
book, written by two outstanding scholars, recalls, through
pictures and words of extraordinary eloquence, the drama experienced
at the time of the eruption and the following reconstruction,
arising from a feeling of pride of the people of that place.
