DARWIN

by Adrian Desmond; James Moore

Published by Michael Joseph Ltd. 1st. 1991

Very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. This biography of Charles Darwin attempts to capture the private unknown life of the real man - the gambling and gluttony at Cambridge, his gruelling trip round the globe, his intimate family life, worries about persecution and thoughts about God. Grey cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w photos & illustrations. xxi and 807 pages including index.

Light bump to top rear corner. Text block a little grubby. Inscription in ink to front endpaper. A few foxspots present, mainly to endpapers and prelims. Pictorial dustwrapper is clean.
