Summary

Charles Darwin thought he would be a clergyman after an uneventful childhood, where he hated school but loved the natural world. All that would change when he was allowed to be a part of a worldwide expedition to faraway lands. He was able to collect specimens and keep notes on all he experienced.

Inside you will hear about....

  • "Early Life and Education"
  • "Round the World Aboard the Beagle"
  • "Darwin's Evolutionary Theory"
  • "Life Leading Up to Marriage"
  • "Evolutionary Research"
  • "The Theory of Natural Selection"
  • "Darwin's Post-Publication Life"
  • And much more!

This audiobook takes a closer look at who Charles Darwin was, how he lived his everyday life and how influential he became; not just in his own day but into the modern world as well. Find out what interested his incredible mind and how Darwin presented his theories to a yet unsuspecting world. From beetles to butterflies, coral reefs and tropical islands, from apes to humans, learn how Charles Darwin's evidence speaks even to the world today.
