Description

Who was Darwin? Open this book and discover the different facets to his life: his studies, his role as naturalist in the expedition that took him to the Galapagos Islands, the publishing of his revolutionary writings, and his personal and family life. This richly illustrated book contains numerous extracts from his Journal and notebooks, contemporary engravings, photographs of zoological specimens that he brought back from his expedition on the Beagle and photos of his family and home. The author, a Darwin specialist, explains his theory of the species and those events that profoundly changed his view of the world, and in particular his discovery of the fossils of extinct giant mammals in the south of Patagonia, his encounter with the primitive peoples in Tierra del Fuego, and an earthquake in Brazil.
