This book presents for the first time a selection of Darwin's autobiographical writings in a single volume illustrating the events and scenes of that momentous journey. The sources are his Diary the later Journal which is based on it, and the short Autobiography which his wife persuaded him to write for their children towards the end of his life. Throughout the voyage he pursued many lines of inquiry but, as this selection shows, it is possible to follow the growth and progress of the thought which was to lead to the theory of natural selection, against the framework of an absorbing adventure story. A clean very presentable copy.

In den Warenkorb1st printing. [3], 26 - 51, [3] pp. Adverts last 2 pages. 7-3/8" x 5-1/4" "The publication of the series of essays on Evolution, delivered under the auspices of the Brooklyn Ethical Association, is undertaken in response to a general and increasing demand for a correct statement, in popular form, of the leading ideas, inferences… and tendencies involved in the acceptance of the Evolution Philosophy, together with a clear statement of the main lines of evidence or proof by which the conception of Evolution is sustained. . The different phases of the subject are treated in this series in a certain natural order of succession, which the student and reader will do well to follow in the perusal of the lectures." [Preface]. OCLC shows a bound volume of the entire series held in one copy [Am Phil Soc Lib], and the NUC lists this separate title as held in just one location: NYPL. A bit of age-toning to text block. Overall, VG+. Modern marbled paper wrappers, with printed paper title label to front wrapper.
