Beagle. The text used for this edition was the last to be published during Darwin's lifetime and is considered to be the definitive version. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Gilded Classics series presents luxury gift editions of classics works, printed on opulent ivory paper, featuring hardcover Wibilin binding, foil-embossed cover designs, beautifully designed end-papers and gilded page edges.
