The ribbon bookmark is nice, but I never use them.

There are copies of it available used Buy it!. The tone of FW is genial and gentle throughout. Packing was not in tact when I received the book, however there was only slight denting on the spine.

Thank you.. It thus covers the essential period of the years leading up to the publication of the theory of natural selection, and contains much valuable information about his thoughts at that time. Stroud has enlivened Emperor of Nature with luscious illustrations (including a beautiful color insert) chronicling every stage of Bonaparte's life, and she supplies complete reference notes and bibliography.
