Or if you don't want to go for a fold next, in a style more similar to
the original:
maximum [] = undefined
maximum [x] = x
maximum (a:b:xs) = maximum (max a b : xs)
It even reproduces the stack overflow, though for a different reason.
How about this:

maximum (a:b:xs) = maximum ((: xs) $! max a b)
