Caveat emptor,
By Always a critic (Ithaca, NY, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex (Paperback)
Take warning -- this is NOT a facsimile of the first edition (1871), but of an 1875 edition. A facsimile of the first edition is available from another publisher.
