Guide Rating -

Pros	• Includes original watercolors and drawings from the voyage

Cons	• Might be more appropriate for those with a specialized interest in the topic

The Bottom Line - Keynes' book may not be of interest to everyone; those with only a passing curiosity in the life and ideas of Charles Darwin probably won't benefit from reading this. On the other hand, those who do have a specialized interest in this topic will almost certainly want to read Keynes' account.

•	Describes the close relationship between Darwin and Captain Robert FitzRoy

Guide Review

Charles Darwin's Adventures Charles Darwin's voyage on the Beagle is perhaps one of the most famous ocean voyages in the history of humanity - but just how much do you really know about it? Even if you read Darwin's own "Voyage of the Beagle," you probably don't know quite as much as you might imagine. A lot occurred during that trip, not all of which is immediately ascertainable from Darwin's text.
