Intended for readers 8 and up, this elegantly complex, stunningly beautiful visual biography of Charles Darwin is likely to be pored over by adults as well, and was named a Best Book of the Year by the New York Times, School Library Journal, and the ALA. Between the front endpaper portraying various creation myths and the closing endpaper with natural scientists, Peter Sís traces the arc of Darwin's life and the impact of his work. The elaborate page spreads include portraits, diary pages, maps, cutaway views of HMS Beagle, and a glorious double gatefold.

"Sweeping in scope, lavish in detail, this is a book to launch many a reader's personal voyage of discovery."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
