The author and his subject do not always agree, for the passage of time and hindsight have their effect on what an old man thinks about himself when he was young; but this mental distortion is itself of interest. It is not widely known that Thomas Henry Huxley also wrote an autobiography which appeared in a volume entitled 'From Handel to Halle.' His autobiography brings out the difficulties he encountered in life until he received recognition and fame." - from dust-jacket blurb. With an Introduction by Gavin de Beer.

Hardcover. Off-white cloth boards with brown lettering and illustration; brown slipcase; xvi, 489 pp.; richly illustrated. When HMS Beagle sailed out of Devonport on 27 December 1831, Charles Darwin was twenty-two and setting off on the voyage of a lifetime. His journal, here reprinted in a shortened form, shows a naturalist making patient observations concerning geology, natural history, people, places and events. Volcanoes in the Galapagos, the Gossamer spider of Patagonia and the Australasian coral reefs - all are to be found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made here were to set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the theory of evolution, and the most controversial book of the Victorian age: The Origin of Species. This volume reprints Charles Darwin's journal in a shortened form. In their introduction Janet Brown and Michael Neve provide a background to Darwin's thought and work, and this edition also includes notes, maps, appendices and an essay on scientific geology and the Bible by Robert FitzRoy, Darwin's friend and Captain of the Beagle. - Amazon synopsis.
