Journal of researches into the natural history and geology of the countries visited during the voyage round the world of the H.M.S. 'Beagle' : under the command of Capt. Fitz Roy, R.N.
Darwin's Journal of Researches, published in London by J. Murray in 1890, is a narrative of natural history and geology written by the naturalist Charles Darwin about the voyage of HMS Beagle round the world. The pictures are plain black-and-white wood engravings, mostly rotated scanned pages, showing South American landscapes, Galapagos tortoises and a map of South America; a designer might take from them the quiet, documentary style of nineteenth-century scientific travel plates.
