From School Library Journal
Grade 4-7 A solid biography of Darwin that should prove useful for reports. Most of the book deals with Darwin's adventurous youth, when he spent nearly five years as the naturalist on a British naval vessel. Darwin's theories are shown to have come to him not in a sudden flash of awareness during the voyage, but gradually after he returned home and pondered those things that he had observed. In the face of all this in formation on Darwin's early life, how ever, an explanation of the theory of natural selection gets somewhat lost. Pen-and-ink illustrations are better when Robinson draws natural history subjects than people, as the figures show odd proportions. The map of the voyage of the Beagle is small and not very detailed, but the index and glossa ry are helpful aids. Despite a few weak ness, this is an admirable biography. Todd Morning, Schaumburg Township Public Library, Ill.
