In these later letters Asa Gray corresponds with Darwin himself, championing the new theory of evolution across the Atlantic. Volume two travels through Europe and America, tracing a botanist's final decades of work, friendship, and quiet influence. A front-row seat to science by mail. Follow the exchange that helped Darwin win America.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
