Eliot. An esteemed academic Eliot had argued that the elements of a liberal education could be gained by spending 15 minutes a day reading from a collection of books that could fit on a five-foot shelf." <br> In 1831 Charles Darwin received an astounding invitation: to join the HMS Beagle as ship's naturalist for a trip around the world. For most of the next five years the Beagle surveyed the coast of South America leaving Darwin free to explore the continent and islands including the Galapagos. He filled dozens of notebooks with careful observations on animals plants and geology and collected thousands of specimens which he crated and sent home for further study. The Easton Press hardcover

Charles Darwin's first published book now universally known as 'The Voyage of the Beagle' but not issued with that title until 1905 is as Richard Freeman notes in his bibliography of the author "undoubtedly the most often read and stands second only to 'On the Origin of Species' as the most often printed". Darwin's account of his travels aboard HMS Beagle between 1831 and 1836 has an appropriately circuitous bibliographical history. It was first issued as the third volume of three of 'The narrative of the voyages of H. M. Ships Adventure and Beagle' 1839 edited by Robert Fitzroy Captain of the Beagle; Darwin's volume simply titled 'Journal and remarks 1832-1836' was also reissued alone the same year. A second edition followed in 1845 as 'Journal or researches into the natural history and geology of the countries visited during the voyage of H. M. S. Beagle round the world .' but it is this 1860 edition described by Freeman as the "Final definitive text" that became the template for the countless editions that followed. Darwin provided new preliminaries and a postscript dated Feb. 1st 1860 outlining changes and corrections made to the text. The work itself a groundbreaking fusion of travel narrative and scientific fieldwork is as Freeman notes"an important travel book in its own right" as well as its significance "in relation to the background of Darwin's evolutionary ideas". The green cloth binding for the 1860 edition is notable for being identical to that of the first three editions of 'On the Origin of Species'. Freeman 20.
