520 1  Mount Lamington broke out in violent eruption on 21 
       January 1951, killing thousands of Orokaiva people, 
       devastating villages and destroying infrastructure. 
       Generations of Orokavia people had lived on the rich 
       volcanic soils of Mount Lamington, apparently unaware of 
       the deadly volcanic threat that lay dormant beneath them. 
       Also unaware were the Europeans who administered the 
       Territory of Papua and New Guinea at the time of the 
       eruption, and who were uncertain about how to interpret 
       the increasing volcanic unrest on the mountain in the 
       preceding days of the disaster. Roars from the Mountain 
       seeks to address why so many people died at Mount 
       Lamington by examining the large amount of published and 
       unpublished records that are available on the 1951 
       disaster. The information sources also include the results
       of interviews with survivors and with people who were part
       of the relief, recovery and remembrance phases of what can
       still be regarded as one of Australia's greatest natural-
       hazard disasters.
