DCP-LETT-4868

From:
Charles Robert Darwin; Emma Wedgwood; Emma Darwin
To:
Joseph Dalton Hooker
Date:
[10 July 1865]
Source of text:
DAR 115: 272
Summary:

Health very bad. All scientific work stopped for 2½ months.

E. B. Tylor’s Early history of mankind [1865] impresses him.

Would like JDH’s opinion of last number of Spencer’s [Principles of] Biology [vol. 1 (1864)], especially on umbellifers. CD not satisfied with Spencer’s views on irregular flowers.

ED reports on CD’s health.

A draft letter [but sent in the original state by Emma Darwin]. Approves of FJW’s notice of his views.
