Lawrence Wager
Lawrence Rickard Wager, commonly known as Bill Wager, (5 February 1904 – 20 November 1965) was a British geologist, explorer and mountaineer, described as "one of the finest geological thinkers of his generation"〔Vincent〕 and best remembered for his work on the Skaergaard intrusion in Greenland, and for his attempt on Mount Everest in 1933.
==Early life==
Born in Batley, Yorkshire, Wager attended Hebden Bridge Grammar School, where his father was head. He later lived with his uncle Harold Wager, FRS, a botanist and mycologist, while studying at Leeds Grammar School.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Catalogue of the papers and correspondence of Lawrence Rickard Wager FRS (1904-1965), geologist )〕
He then entered Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he gained a first class degree in geology in 1926. While at Cambridge, he developed an interest in climbing, spending a number of holidays in the Wales, Scotland and the Alps, and serving as president of the university's mountaineering club.〔 After three years of further research at Cambridge, he was appointed a lecturer in the geology department at the University of Reading.〔
