A most pleasing copy. Freeman 12. Darwins first published book is undoubtedly the most often read and stands second only to On the origin of species as the most often printed. It is an important travel book in its own right and its relation to the background of his evolutionary ideas has often been stressed Freeman. It first appeared in its own right in 1839. We offer for sale here a copy of the final third issue of the first edition and it is identical to the second except that the conjugate half-title and title leaves have been reprinted. This is the scarcest of the three but in my experience the maps are always inserted in the text. Some copies also have the 16 pp inserted advertisements of August 1839. Freeman.

First edition first issue an attractive copy of the first separate issue of Darwin's Journal his first formal publication and a classic of natural history travel narrative. It was perhaps the most important scientific voyage ever undertaken for it gave impetus and direction to all of Darwin's later research. 'The five years of the voyage were the most important event in Darwin's intellectual life and in the history of biological science. Darwin sailed with no formal scientific training. 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. He also developed doubts of the value of the Scriptures as a trustworthy guide to the history of the earth and of man with the result that he gradually became an agnostic. The experiences of his five years in the Beagle how he dealt with them and what they led to built up into a process of epoch-making importance in the history of thought' Gavin de Beer in DSB. The Journal of Researches was issued as part of the Voyage of the Beagle volumes and also as a separate book as above; this separate issue comprises sheets from the same print-run but with cancel half-title and title-page. Both were published and available in June 1839. Freeman 11 Henry Colburn hardcover
