Fitzroy R.N. during the years 1832 to 1836" The monograph set out Darwin's theory of the formation of coral reefs and atolls. He extensively revised and rewrote the book for its 1874 second edition to take into account James Dwight Dana's 1872 publication 'Corals and Coral Islands' and work by Joseph Jukes. This is the third edition with Darwin's prefaces to the first and second edition and a preface to this edition by his son Francis Darwin. It also includes an appendix by the geologist Thomas George Bonney on the study of coral reefs since 1874.

In content this work comprises an abridged reprinting of Conyer Middleton's Dissertation 1734-5 correctly arguing that contrary to popular opinion William Caxton was the first printer in England. The second essay is an English translation of Gerard Meerman's Origines Typographicase in which the Dutch collector argues that the first printing was done by Laurentius in Harleim improved upon by Gutenberg and then Schoeffer in Mainz. Both essays are accompanied by intelligent commentary by the printers in addition to appendices on early Greek Hebrew and polyglot books.
