This handsome facsimile has been reproduced from Wallaces personal copy of the 10th edition which includes a number of handwritten annotations made by Wallace himself.
The Malay Archipelago is a vivid, momentous and far-reaching account of Alfred Russel Wallaces eight-year exploration of Southeast Asia between 1854 and 1862It is long considered one of the greatest travel books ever written and has never been out of print.
Wallaces travels led him to develop the theory of evolution by natural selection independently of Charles Darwin, and his and Darwins theories were jointly proposed in a paper to the Linnean Society in 1858During his travels he accumulated an astonishing 125,660 specimens, including more than 5,000 species new to western science, establishing his reputation as the 19th centurys leading expert on the geographical distribution of animal species and the "father of biogeography."
This edition was published in 1890, 28 years after the first, and has additional information from subsequent collectors and footnotes in which Wallace corrects some earlier errorsIt also features illustrations by contemporary artists such as Thomas Baines, Walter Hood Fitch and TW Wood, and includes two fold-out colour maps of the archipelago, one showing the routes taken and the other the volcanic belts in the region. There is also a new foreword by Sandra Knapp, President of the Linnean Society (2018-2022).
