DCP-LETT-4874

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Joseph Dalton Hooker
Date:
[29 July 1865]
Source of text:
DAR 115: 273
Summary:

Was glad to read JDH’s article on glaciers of Yorkshire ["Moraines of the Tees Valley", Reader 6 (1865): 70].

Reader article [6 (1865): 61–2] about English and foreign men of science is unjust.

Lubbock is now lost to science.

B. Verlot’s pamphlet on variations of flowers [Sur la production et la fixation des variétés dans les plantes d’ornement (1865)] is very good.
