Summary:
Expresses gratification that JVC is to undertake new translation and revision of German edition of the Origin.
Has heard many complaints about Bronn’s translation. JVC would be justified in omitting Bronn’s appendix.
Suggests additions and changes, including reference to C. W. v. Nägeli’s Entstehung und Begriff [1865], though he disagrees with it.
