Signed by Illustrator Charles Darwin (1809-1882) studied medicine at Edinburgh University and biology at Cambridge. He was recommended as naturalist on H.M.S.Beagle, which was bound for a long scientific voyage expedition to South America and the South Seas (1831-36). His zoological and geological discoveries on the voyage resulted in numerous important publications, and formed the basis for his theories of evolution. He saw natural selection as the mechanism by which advantageous variations were passed on to later generations, and less advantageous traits gradually disappeared. He worked on his theory for 20 years before co-authoring a paper in 1858 with A. R. Wallace. After publishing On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection in 1859, Darwin commented, «As soon as I had become, in the year 1837 or 1838, convinced that species were mutable productions, I could not avoid the belief that man must come under the same law.» Therefore, in 1871, he published The Descent of Man. In Descent, Darwin discussed sexual selection, and argued that man, too, had evolved, from the higher primates, whereas his fellow colleague Wallace made man a partial exception to this rule. Despite religious and humanist fears, evolutionism in general quickly won acceptance; but natural selection, Darwin’s evolutionary mechanism, waited for want of an adequate theory until the rediscovery of Mendelian genetics, which led to the emergance of the modern evolutionary synthesis in the 1920s. The Voyage of H M. S. Beagle is as its name suggests or, more specifically, what took place in the interval of time when the ship got under way at Devonport around midday of December 27, 1831 until she dropped anchor at Falmouth in mid-October, of 1836. Darwin’s five-year field trip made the world his laboratory and his museum. Had there been no voyage in the Beagle, would there have been no Origin of Species? There certainly would have been something, but probably nothing with the impact of the Origin. So, it all starts here, and we are aboard. Illustrating our edition, Robert Gibbings made wood engravings, which are scattered through the text in considerable profusion. Mr. Gibbings also designed our book, and the text and illustrations were printed under the supervision of John Dreyfus at the Cambridge University Press. The text is composed in Monotype Poliphilus, and is printed on paper especially made for us by Cowan and Sons at their Valleyfield Mills at Penicuik, Midlothian, Scotland. The binding, designed by Mr. Dreyfus, is of light brown sailcloth especially decorated with a motif inspired by a Polynesian bark cloth, and the end papers are based on a native tapa design. This is copy number 803 of 1500 copies, and is signed by Robert Gibbings. The offer includes the four page Limited Editions Club Monthly Letter and prepublication announcement. The book, in specimen condition, should appeal to any serious student of natural history/biology, and would make a deserving award/gift to such a scholar, regardless of age. Thank you for reading this presentation, and good luck in your searches. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
