"In 1831, young Charles Darwin boarded the British Navy ship HMS Beagle for his now-famous scientific journey around the world. During his travels he fought seasickness, terrible storms, a life-threatening illness, and even an earthquake. Charles met native peoples and carefully observed and collected unusual plants, insects, birds, mammals, and fossils. Little did he dream that his work on this spectacular trip would change the world of science forever..."--BOOK JACKET.
