AN IMPORTANT WORK IN THE DARWIN OEUVRE. One of the early printings which used the title "A Naturalist's Voyage" on the title page. One of Darwin’s earliest works. Even without publication of his works on evolution he would have had a considerable reputation as the author of The Voyage of the Beagle. While ‘The Origin of Species’ dominates perceptions of his work this is an important travel book in its own right and its relation to the background of his evolutionary ideas has often been stressed.Freeman.<br> “Of the great exploratory voyages ‘a most important place is taken by the voyage of the ‘Beagle’ in 1831-1834. Darwin’s name is so associated with the evolutionary idea through which he profoundly influenced scientific philosophical political religious and ethical thought that certain of his other claims are often forgotten. To appreciate his distinction it is necessary to recall that had he never written on evolution he would still stand in the front rank among naturalists and would have to be included in any history of science. Thus even during the voyage in the ‘Beagle’ he reached conclusions that modified and extended the fundamental working principles of geology and geophysics.†- Singer.<br> During the voyage Darwin suffered severely from seasickness. In a letter to his sister Caroline he wrote “ I continue to suffer so much from sea-sickness that nothing not even geology itself can make up for the misery .†Bowlby p.164 John Murray hardcover
