Iceland is the world’s largest volcanic island. This lone and rugged island is a volcanic hotbed where steam escapes, water explodes and new ground is borne every day from deep inside the earth’s blazing core. The volcanic process that built Iceland continues today, as volcanoes erupt and magma from deep within the earth rises to the surface to create new land. But
there is one force on this rugged island nearly as powerful as fire: ice. Here, fire and ice collide in a colossal battle for supremacy. It is an epic struggle that makes Iceland the most geologically powerful island on earth.
