hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Second Impression. Publication: London, The Folio Society, 1979 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 359. Condition Report: Near Fine. This copy presents exceptionally well, housed in its original textured, brown slipcase which remains firm, fully intact, and shows only the most trivial, superficial hints of shelf-wear to the edges. The book itself boasts a remarkably tight, square binding with no leaning or looseness. The wraparound lithographic cloth boards are immaculate, free of any rubbing, soiling, or corner-bumping. The spine panel and its gilt lettering remain exceptionally bright and completely unoxidised, indicating it has been kept properly shelved and away from direct light. The top edge stain remains uniform and deep, while the fore-edge is impeccably clean. Internally, the text block is pristine; the pages are crisp, bright, and completely devoid of foxing, thumbing, or previous ownership inscriptions, justifying the high grade. Catalogue Note: A handsome second impression of this highly regarded first thus edition. Selected and edited by David Stanbury, this volume elegantly curates the seminal passages from Captain FitzRoy's original narrative, enriching them with supplementary accounts from Charles Darwin's diaries, notes from Midshipman Philip King, and letters from Second Lieutenant Bartholomew Sulivan. The edition is notably illustrated with colour plates, including a frontispiece portrait tentatively identified as FitzRoy himself, which capture the dramatic landscapes and vital discoveries of the historic expedition. The distinct wraparound lithographic cloth binding presents a beautiful coastal scene, perfectly evoking the spirit of 19th-century maritime exploration. While standard impressions from this publisher are relatively accessible on the open market, copies preserved in such pristine, unblemished condition with a near-perfect slipcase remain highly desirable among collectors of travel literature, naval history, and evolutionary science. A captivating and elegantly bound account of one of historyâs most consequential scientific expeditions. This edition masterfully weaves together the firsthand logs, reports, and letters of Captain Robert FitzRoy with the keen observations of Charles Darwin and other key crew members aboard the H.M.S. Beagle. Charting a dramatic journey through South America, the Galápagos Islands, Tahiti, and New Zealand, it offers an immersive, multifaceted look at the voyage that ultimately shaped Darwin's groundbreaking theories on the natural world and forever altered the course of modern science.
