The Galapagos in the garden of England
The Origin of Species is the most famous book in science but its stature tends to obscure the genius of Charles Darwin's other works. The Beagle voyage, too, occupied only five of the fifty years of his busy career. His Galapagos visit lasted just five weeks and on his return he never left Britain again. Darwin spent forty years working on the plants, animals and people of his native land and w rote six million words, in nineteen books and innumerable letters, on topics as different as dogs, barnacles, insect-eating plants, orchids, earthworms, apes and human emotion. Together, they laid the foundations of modern biology.
In this beautifully written, witty and illuminating book, Steve (ones explores the domestic Darwin, the sage of Kent, and brings his work to a new audience. Great Britain w as Charles Darwin's other island, its countryside as much, or more, a place of discovery as had been the Galapagos. Darwin's Island traces the great naturalist's journey across Britain's modest landscape: a voyage not of the body, but of the mind.
