| Book description |
|
But everything he encountered on the voyage -- from the primitive people of Tierra del Fuego to the finches of the Galapagos Islands, from earthquakes and eruptions to fossil seashells gathered at 12,000 feet in the Andes -- challenged biblical assumptions and led finally to ORIGIN OF SPECIES.
"Mr. Moorehead's admirable prose style, his entrancing narrative...are beyond praise." (The London Times)
