1969 Darwin & The Beagle by Alan Moorehead Natural History Reference Book

Darwin & The Beagle
By Alan Moorehead
Published by Hamish Hamilton: London 1969 1st Edition

" Alan Moorehead's Darwin and the Beagle offers a richly detailed narrative of Charles Darwin's five-year voyage aboard HMS Beagle, the journey that forever altered the course of scientific thought. Drawing from Darwin's journals and ship logs, Moorehead vividly recreates the landscapes, peoples, and natural wonders encountered during the expedition—from the storm-lashed coasts of Patagonia to the Galápagos Islands, where Darwin's observations would later inspire his revolutionary theory of evolution. The book combines the tension of maritime adventure with the dawning of modern science, showing Darwin as both a young, uncertain naturalist and a man on the brink of intellectual discovery.

Lavishly illustrated with period maps, drawings, and contemporary paintings, this first edition captures Moorehead's gift for blending historical accuracy with literary flair. Darwin and the Beagle appeals to readers interested in exploration, the history of science, and the human story behind one of the world's greatest scientific voyages, making it a prized volume for collectors of natural history and travel literature alike."
