«Viaje de un naturalista alrededor del mundo» is the travel account of Charles Darwin, published by Círculo del Bibliófilo in hardcover, in Spanish.
Charles Darwin recounts his observations during the voyage aboard HMS Beagle between 1831 and 1836, with stops in South America and the Pacific islands. The book combines the exploration narrative with his zoological, geological and botanical notes, material that would later feed his theory of evolution.
1981 edition in two volumes, with period engravings; facsimile reproduction of the 1899 edition.
For collectors of special editions and readers interested in the history of science and travel accounts.
Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist, geologist, and biologist, widely known for his contributions to evolutionary biology. His proposition that all species of life have descended from a common ancestor is now generally accepted and considered a fundamental scientific concept. In a joint presentation with Alfred Russel Wallace, he introduced his scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process he called natural selection, in which the struggle for existence has a similar effect to the artificial selection involved in selective breeding. Darwin has been described as one of the most influential figures in human history and was honoured by burial in Westminster Abbey.
