Summary
The article discusses the author's experience creating a history of science TikTok about Frank Perret, a volcanologist who had a near-death encounter with a pyroclastic flow on Mount Pelée around 1930. The author references Perret's 1937 monograph on his observations of the volcano from 1929-1932, and describes the process of tracking down the original source material for the story. The content appears to be a personal blog-style narrative about creating educational science history content for social media.
