PENGUIN 60 s CLASSICS
THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
Chronicles from a remarkable expedition
The Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean offered Charles Darwin a wealth of specimens to catalogue and study. He encountered "a little world within itself": birds that were unafraid of man, a volcanic landscape, a striking contingent of reptiles, a scarcity of insects. Sailing on to the South Sea, Darwin found himself welcomed by the friendly and temperate people of Tahiti. The Voyage of the Beagle, his diary of the five year journey began in 1831, is published in Penguin Classics.
