Description: If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin. Here we offer the scarce "New Edition" of Charles Darwin's classic, Journal of Researches into the Natural History and Geology of the Countries Visited During the Voyage of the H.M.S. Beagle Round the World, Under the Command of Captain Fitz Roy, R.A., published by D. Appleton and Company, New York, in 1871. This is the original form the book took, including gilt and ink-impressed silk nutmeg boards. Boards are moisture-damaged and text block is a bit stiff as a result (please see pics). Wrinkled endpapers are split at front gutterwith firm hinges. Period-inscribed at front for a private library. Very tight and square binding; some stains and wrinkling at introductory pages, but further in, very clean, bright and crisp text. Book measures approximately 8 x 5.5-inches, 519 indexed pages, plus several advertising pages. Offered at a low buy-it-now due to the moisture damage, this very early classic will make a bargain addition to your collection.
