The voyage of the beagle - Charles Darvin FREE SHIPPING

At the end of 1831, a Royal Navy brig, the Beagle, sailed off on a five-year voyage with the purpose of drawing maps and navigation charts of South America and the Pacific. With the team was a young student, Charles Darwin (1809-1882), employed as the expedi-tion's natural scientist: his job was to study the various native animal and plant species on shore and on land. This book is an account of Darwin's extraordinary human and scientific experi-ence, which gave him the basis for his break-through theory of the evolution of species.
