""Charles Darwin His Life and Work"" by Charles Frederick Holder is a comprehensive biography of the famous naturalist and scientist, Charles Darwin. The book covers Darwin's life from his birth in 1809 to his death in 1882, including his upbringing, education, and the events that led him to develop his theory of evolution. Holder explores Darwin's early interest in natural history and his voyage on the HMS Beagle, which provided him with the opportunity to study the flora and fauna of South America and the Galapagos Islands. The book also covers Darwin's personal life, including his marriage to Emma Wedgwood and the tragic loss of three of their children. Holder delves into Darwin's scientific work, including his groundbreaking theory of evolution and natural selection, which challenged traditional religious beliefs and revolutionized the field of biology. The book also examines the controversies surrounding Darwin's work, including the debate over the origin of species and the social and political implications of his theories. Overall, ""Charles Darwin His Life and Work"" provides a detailed and engaging account of one of the most important figures in the history of science, illuminating both the personal and professional aspects of Darwin's life and legacy.1891. Holder notes in his Preface to Darwin's biography: In the preparation of this work I have not attempted an analytical dissertation upon Darwin's lifework, neither have I discussed his theories or their possible effect upon the scientific world, but have simply presented the story of his life, that of one of the greatest naturalists of the age; a life of singular purity; the life of a man who, in loftiness of purpose and the accomplishment of grand results, was the center of observation in his time; revered and honored, yet maligned and attacked as few have been. I have asked my readers to follow with me the footsteps of the naturalist from schooldays in England to foreign shores, seeking to interest them in the pursuits which he loved and to enable them to observe the things which he saw, believing that in this way the remarkable traits of the man as an observer and thinker can be best and most forcibly shown.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
