Abstract
THE Katmai expeditions of the National Geographic Society, under the leadership of the present writer, have been exploring the district devastated by the great eruption of Katmai in 1912. As knowledge of this eruption increases, it becomes more and more apparent not only that it was one of the greatest of all eruptions, but that it had many peculiarities which set it apart in a class by itself, without parallel in historic times.
