Volcanoes: Past and Present

"Volcanoes: Past and Present" by Edward Hull is a scientific exploration of volcanoes and earthquakes that contrasts past eruptions with present-day activity to reveal the geological forces at play. Hull sets out to shed light on key questions about volcanoes, using modern geology as a lens and examining thoughts from the ancient Greeks and Romans. Hull aims to demonstrate that eruptions have maintained consistent features over time, offering a look into the ongoing story of volcanic behavior and historical interpretations.
