London: John Murray

Charles Darwin continued to develop his theory of natural selection first articulated in On the Origin of Species (1859). With his botanist son Francis (1848-1925), he co-authored The Power of Movement in Plants. In addition to his research on botanical genetics, Francis Darwin published Rustic Sounds and Other Studies in Literature and Natural History (1917), a series of essays that reflected the influences of his family.
