The Life of Erasmus Darwin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Life of Erasmus Darwin is the 1879 biography of Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802) by his grandson Charles Darwin.
Before publication however 16% of the work was cut out by Charles' daughter Etty Darwin — mostly the most provocative parts. It is worth noting that The Autobiography of Charles Darwin was later similarly treated. An unabridged edition edited by Desmond King-Hele was published in 2003 to mark the 200th anniversary since Erasmus' death.
As of 2006 the original edition, now in the public domain, has not apparently been the Internet, the unabridged edition naturally remains under copyright.
