First published in 1842, this vintage book contains part one of Charles Darwin's The Zoology of The Voyage of H.M.S. Beagle , a fascinating and detailed account of the research he did whilst aboard the HMS Beagle between 1832 and 1836-work that played a key role in the conception of his scientific theories on evolution and natural selection. This part concentrates on the fossils that he unearthed and studied from around the world, with descriptions and notes. Contents include: Toxodon Platensis, Description of Cranium , Of Lower Jaw and Teeth , Macrauchenia Patachonica , Cervical Vertebrae , Lumbar Vertibrae , Scapula , Antibrachium and Fore-foot , Femur , Tibia, Astragalus, and Metatarsal Bone , Glossotherium , etc. Charles Robert Darwin (1809 - 1882) was an English geologist, naturalist, and biologist most famous for his contributions to the science of evolution and his book On the Origin of Species (1859). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) was born in Shropshire, England. His first text chronicling his five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle, which included his notable visit to the Galapagos Islands, earned him success as an author in 1839. His observations from the Galapagos, alongside an interest in natural history from an early age and studies over the consequent years, informed the development of his biological theories, culminating the ground-breaking text 'On the Origin of Species' for which he is best known.
