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. 600 10 Wallace, Alfred Russel,|d1823-1913|vJuvenile literature. 600 10 Wallace, Alfred Russel,|d1823-1913|xTravel|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Naturalists|zGreat Britain|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Explorers|zGreat Britain|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Evolution (Biology)|xHistory|y19th century|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Discoveries in science|vJuvenile literature. 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 700 1 Tennant, Harry,|eillustrator. 938 Brodart|bBROD|n125248784 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n16357336 994 C0|bORL
