DARWIN Charles Robert
Drop-title: For Private Distribution.Extracts from Letters addressed to Professor Henslow by C. Darwin
31 pp. 8vo bound in attractive green morocco-backed cloth over boards. Cambridge: "Printed for Distribution among the Members of the Cambridge Philosophical Society" 1 December 1835. First edition of Darwin's first separately printed work and of the greatest rarity. This unauthorized pamphlet contains extracts from ten letters written to John Stevens Henslow 1796-1861 by Darwin during his five-year voyage on the Beagle. Henslow had been Darwin's botany professor at Cambridge and their friendship "was one of the most influential circumstances in his Darwin's early life."-ODNB. It was Henslow who obtained for him the post of naturalist on the Beagle. Darwin's letters were published without his knowledge; Henslow had read some of them before the Cambridge Philosophical Society and was responsible for printing this small pamphlet of extracts. The present work did introduce Darwin's name and some important observations to a small but influential group of scientists and when he arrived back in England in the autumn of 1836 he carried with him something of a reputation as a geologist. Fine copy preserved in a green morocco-backed box. From the library of Robert Crewe-Milnes 1st Marquess of Crewe 1858-1945 British statesman and author note on pastedown stating that the book was purchased by Maggs Bros. from the Crewe library. Accompanied by the 1960 privately printed facsimile. ❧ Freeman 1. hardcover books

By experiment Darwin found that the plants which had been cross fertilized almost always grew taller and stronger than those which had pollinated themselves. . This was clearly a strong if circumstantial proof of his central thesis natural selection: the adaptations to ease cross-fertilization were connected with a general increase in vigour; vigorous plants were more likely to survive in competitive circumstances; thus over the vast periods of evolutionary development plants making cross-fertilization easier. . . will always have had an advantage over those that did not" Brent Charles Darwin New York 1981 p. 490 .

Darwin Charles. Assisted by Francis Darwin.
The Power of Movement in Plants.
8vo. London: John Murray 1880. 8vo x 592 32 ads dated May 1878 pp. Illustrated with 196 in-text woodcuts. Original green blind-stamped cloth backstrip titled in gilt brown coated endpapers hinges cracked a little wear to crown and foot of backstrip text block edges but not pages stained an unsophisticated copy. § First edition first issue inscribed in Charles Darwin’s hand “Elizabeth Darwin From her Fatherâ€. Presentation copies from Darwin in his own hand are exceptionally rare most presentation copies were inscribed “from the author†by the publisher; a copy inscribed to a family member by Darwin himself is extraordinarily so. Elizabeth Darwin known as Bessy was Charles and Emma Darwin’s youngest daughter who lived at home until the death of her mother and died in 1926. Very little is known about her. “Despite her constant presence in the house only very occasionally does her name appear in any of the mountain of family letters†Bowlby Charles Darwin: A New Life 408. After her mother’s death Elizabeth moved to a small house in Cambridge where she lived to be 78. The book is an extension of Darwin’s work on movement in climbing plants to show that the same mechanisms hold true for flowering plants in general. Darwin was assisted by his son Francis who had become an accomplished botanist. The book was well reviewed and immediately sold 1500 copies. Freeman 1325. John Murray hardcover books

He returned a hard-headed man of science knowing the importance of evidence almost convinced that species had not always been as they were since the creation but had undergone change. DSB III 566. Darwin's Journal "is one of the most interesting records of natural history exploration ever written and is one of the most important for it was on this voyage that Darwin prepared for his lifework ultimately leading to On The Origin of Species" Hill 104-5.
