This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ...surrounding Stromboli on the south. Hoffmann in 1832 suggested that these probably represented the fragments of a former enormous crater. Professor Judd in 1875 confirmed this view, and also agreed with Hoffmann's conclusion that the vents of the volcanic discharges in the Lipari Isles virtually occur along the course of three radial fissures. Professor Suess expressed a similar opinion that the JEolian Isles mark a saucer-shaped depression in which radial faults intersect. The Santorin Isles form the subject of a splendidly illustrated monograph by Fouque'. Since its publication in 1878, a number of geologists have contributed special papers on the surface conformation, the geological structure, the origin and history of these volcanic islands. All newer publications agree that the theory of the Elevation-Craters is quite inapplicable to Santorin. The volcanoes of Iceland have been carefully investigated during the past century. Mackenzie's Travels gave the earliest detailed reports (18r1); in 1846, the great chemist Robert von Bunsen travelled through Iceland, and published five years later his famous treatise on the chemical composition and origin of the volcanic rocks of Iceland. Within recent years the island has been accurately mapped by members of the Norwegian Survey Department, and important contributions have been made to the knowledge of its volcanoes by Thoroddsen and Keilhack. The extinct volcanoes of Europe have received a large share of attention from geologists. The Euganian Isles near Padua, and Monte Berici near Vicenza, have been studied by Dr. vom Rath, Dr. Reyer, and Professor Suess. The extinct volcanoes of Central France, the Eifel and the Siebengebirge, have been frequently mentioned in the foregoing pages. Other...
