Darwin's Notebook by Jonathan Clement

One of the most fascinating writers and scientists the world has ever seen, Charles Darwin is presented in this journal-like biography through his personal writings and discoveries. Progress with Darwin through his early schooling, his studies in the Galapagos Islands, the writing and publication of The Evolution of Species, and his long-term legacy. This is a detailed account of Darwins life and discoveries, but it is written, designed, and illustrated to resemble a personal notebook or journal. On the bicentennial anniversary of his birth, Clements provides an intimate look into Darwins degeneration of faith, his personal relationships, the acclaim and criticism from scholars and friends, and his lasting legacy to science. Discover both the scientific and personal sides of Charles Darwin with this beautifully bound, illustrated biography.
