520    Follow Victorian naturalist and explorer Alfred Russel 
       Wallace on his intrepid journeys across the globe and find
       out how he developed his own theory of evolution in this 
       beautiful illustrated gift hardback. In 1858, Alfred 
       Russel Wallace's travels in the Amazon Basin and Malay 
       Archipelago led him to discover natural selection 
       independently of Charles Darwin. Darwin's Rival traces 
       Wallace's life from his childhood in the Welsh countryside
       to his rise to prominence among the scientific community, 
       via dense tropical jungles and perilous journeys -- and 
       shines a light on one of the most important contributors 
       to the theory of evolution. With evocative illustrations 
       by Harry Tennant, this stunning gift book will appeal to 
       children and adults alike, and is the perfect introduction
       to the man so often eclipsed by his contemporary and 
       friend Charles Darwin.
