George Scrope's Considerations on Volcanos (1825) contains the results of his observations in the volcanic regions of France, Italy and Germany. It was one of the first attempts at a comprehensive theory of volcanic action and an understanding of the significance of volcanos as evidence for the earth's geological history.
