1839réf. 189181London: Henry Colburn 1839. The Voyage of the Beagle First separate edition of this eyewitness account of one of the most influential expeditions in human history describing what Darwin judged "by far the most important event in my life" and recording the fieldwork that led to the Origin of Species Life and Letters I p. 61. These records are "famous as the genesis of Darwin's theory of evolutionary biology" Hill transforming his horizons from an intended career as a country parson and seeding a determination to establish himself as a gentleman scientist. The Journal known ever since as The Voyage of the Beagle is renowned among Darwin's books as "undoubtedly the most often read and standing second only to On the Origin of Species as the most often printed" p. 31. The Journal was first published early in 1839 as Volume III of the Narrative of the Surveying Voyages of His Majesty's Ships Adventure and Beagle. This separate edition was printed from the same sheets but with two preliminary leaves cancelled and one leaf discarded: the cancelled leaves now credit Darwin's election to the Royal Society which took place after the publication of the Narrative set. Octavo 235 x 145 mm. With 2 folding engraved maps woodcuts in the text. Contemporary brown paper-covered boards recently rebacked to style decorated and ruled in gilt and blind and with red morocco label vellum tips. Later 19th-century engraved monogram bookplate. Remnants of contemporary ink ownership inscription to front free endpaper. Light rubbing infrequent foxing to edges minor foxing and short closed tears to inner margins of both plates contents generally fresh and crisp: a very good copy indeed. Freeman 11.

1860réf. BCNH2002An immaculate copy of Darwin's first published book—universally celebrated as The Voyage of the Beagle. This 1860 printing is heavily prized by collectors as it represents the final definitive text layout. Darwin personally revised the volume contributing an updated preface and a new postscript dated Feb. 1st 1860 addressing minor textual corrections. Furthermore John Murray intentionally published this milestone edition in the exact same green blind-stamped diagonal-wave-grain cloth style used for On the Origin of Species completing the ultimate pairing for evolutionary biology collectors. Physical Description and Collation Octavo. pp. xv xvi 519 followed by 32 pages of Murray's General List of Works advertisements dated "January 1863" bound at the rear. Complete with the half-title page and 11 fine woodcuts/diagrams integrated within the text block. Publisher's original green diagonal-wave-grain cloth boards symmetrically stamped in blind spine lettered and decorated in bright gilt. Original dark chocolate-brown paper endpapers complete with the highly desirable intact paper binder's ticket of "Bound by Edmonds & Remnants London" cleanly affixed to the rear pastedown. An outstanding premium collector's copy in an exceptionally crisp state of preservation. Binding and Cloth: Exceptional. The cloth retains its rich deep original green color across the boards and spine entirely escaping the heavy sun-bleaching or uniform browning typical of mid-Victorian cloth. The gilt lettering is sharp and intensely bright. Sharp corners and firm spine ends showing only minuscule hints of shelf friction. Hinges and Joints: Structurally flawless. The internal hinges are completely sound uncracked and un-repaired. The text block remains tight square and solid. Interior and Text Block: Remarkably fresh. The leaves are crisp white and exceptionally clean showing far less age-toning or foxing than is normally expected of this vintage. Features an elegant contemporary ink signature on the upper margin of the title page "H. Dickson 1st George Oakridge Toronto" offering a brilliant clean piece of nineteenth-century provenance. An incredibly sharp bright and completely untouched copy of the foundational travelogue that directly inspired Darwin's theory of natural selection. John Murray, Albemarle Street hardcover
