George Poulett Scrope
George Poulett Scrope (1797–1876) was a pioneering British geologist whose interest in volcanos was inspired by visits to Vesuvius while he was an undergraduate. This influential 1862 book on volcanic phenomena, a reworking of his early Considerations on Volcanos (1825), was one of the foundational texts of volcanology.
