Description: Darwin and the Beagle by Alan Moorehead Hardcover With Dust Jacket1970 5th Printing Alan Moorehead's writing is superb. Clear, easy to read, and beautifully written. The book is lavishly illustrated with contemporary (1830's) drawings and paintings. These add immeasurably to the pleasure of reading and to a full comprehension of the voyage. It really gives the feel of the trip as well as focusing on how Darwin developed during this supremely important five-year expedition.There is only modest focus on the theory of evolution until the final chapter; more on Darwin's initial ideas on the voyage itself, as he encountered the geology and wildlife. Yes, the geology was an important early influence on his realization that the earth had evolved over the ages.A classic. Free Shipping! M
