Description
In the preparation of this volume I am indebted to Francis
Darwin, Esq., of Cambridge, England, whose life .of his father is the only work
extant giving fully the life and letters of the naturalist. My thanks are also
due the Biological Society of Washington for the extracts from the Darwin
Memorial, /.which.'I conceive to be of especial interest to English. readers as.
an expression from the leading
naturalists of America on the English scientist. My acknowledgments are also
given to Professor True, of the Smithsonian Institution, for the loan of a rare
and excellent likeness of Darwin, and important papers ; and to my wife,
whose aid and cooperation have been invaluable.
