Alexander Winchell

    Alexander Newton Winchell was a geologist whose primary contribution was as an educator and a popular lecturer and author. He was significantly concerned with reconciling science and religion, and his views on evolution were controversial in his time, though today they draw comment for their inherent racism. While his geological research was not as impactful as his teaching, his work in popularizing the field left a notable mark.
