A solidly Good copy, now protected by Mylar. Rough-cut page edges all around. Charles Darwin's â€oeJournal of Researches,â€� which eventually came to be known as Voyage of the Beagle, became his first published book and bespeaks perhaps the most important period of his life. "On its first appearance in its own right,â€� he notes in his autobiography, â€oealso in 1839, it was called Journal of researches into the geology and natural history etc.â€� The Second Edition, which was first published in 1845, transposes â€oegeologyâ€� and â€oenatural historyâ€� to read Journal of researches into the natural history and geology etc., and the spine title here also reads Naturalist's Voyage. The final definitive text of 1860 has the same wording on the title page, but the spine reads Naturalist's voyage round the world, and the fourteenth thousand of 1879 places A naturalist's voyage on the title page, which is not present here. The â€oePost-scriptâ€� here is dated also to 1860.A nice copy of an important book.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . . Very Good
