Reseña del editor
Darwin's voyage on The Beagle to Tierra del Fuego and the Galapagos Islands is hailed as a pivotal point in history for discovery and the explanation of man's very being. Nick Hazlewood shatters this purely romantic notion to reveal that along with the flora and fauna collected, island children were brought back too. Jemmy Button, so called because explorers threw a pearl button at his father in recompense for his life, was one of the "savages" torn from his pacific island family and brought back to Britain. He was taught English, dressed in British clothes and paraded to the British establishment. Such was the desire to meet him that the Royal family invited him to tea. He was an object of curiosity and fascination. Jemmy was ferried back and forth to his homeland as part of a grand experiment which ended disastrously and shockingly. Hazlewood tells this fascinating story for the first time.
