The Voyage of the Beagle

In 1831, Darwin embarked on the HMS Beagle for his second expedition surveying the world s remarkable biological diversity. Not only would the expedition last five years and take the biologist to the farthest reaches of the globe, it would also inspire Darwin s celebrated theory of evolution by natural selection. The Voyage of the Beagle details and catalogues Darwin s incredible observations and theories and affords the reader the unique opportunity to witness the natural world unfold through his eyes.
