Cover of How the Earth Feels: Geological Fantasy in the Nineteenth-Century United States by Dana Luciano. Cover is a landscape painting. An individual and an alpaca walk in the foreground of the painting underneath tall, green trees. A river runs through the landscape before flowing into a waterfall over a rugged cliff. Black smoke plumes into a large, orange-hued cloud as a volcano erupts in the background.
