"Written down one year after the return from the expedition, Voyage on the Beagle ship reads like the best adventure books. It is not only a fascinating story about the discovery of an unknown, unspoiled world where man's foot has never stepped before, but also an insight into one of the most brilliant minds of the era. The story of how faith collides with science - after all, it was Darwin who showed that all living organisms descended from the same ancestor. Bacteria, not God. This journey changed the face of the world." Source: Margin Publishing
