It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

    BOOK REVIEWS Earth Sciences History Jan 2012 v 31(1) pp 157-162 THE LIFE AND WORK OF PROFESSOR J. W. GREGORY FRS (1864–1932). GEOLOGIST, WRITER AND EXPLORER. By Bernard Elgey Leake. 2011. London: The Geological Society (Memoir No. 34). 234 pp. Hardcover, £75.00, $150.00. In a book review in this journal, Sorkhabi (2006) asks: “What are scientific biographies for, anyway? Why should we care about the life, work and publications of dead scientists?” Among the answers that he provides is: “professional successes and life lessons of pioneer scientists encourage the younger generations. Nearly all of us who have become scientists have had role models and heroes who fascinated and drew us to science”. The subject of this meticulously researched, and immensely readable, biography could be viewed in many ways as just such a person. John Walter Gregory (always known as ‘Jack’ by his family) was born in London in 1864, the son of a ‘middle class’ wool salesman. He was educated from the age of six, first at a boarding school which followed the Pestalozzian system, then at Stepney Grammar School, Bow, London. Following the death of his father from tuberculosis in 1876, he left school in 1878 to work first on a dairy farm and then, from 1880–1887, as a trainee wool sales clerk, the intention being that he would follow in his father’s profession. However, by at least 1883, he was also managing to pursue further studies at night-school and at weekends, attending classes at the City of London College, Birkbeck Institution, and the Royal School of Mines in London.
