Description
Documentary telling the little-known story of how Darwin came to write his great masterpiece, On the Origin of Species, a book which explains the wonderful variety of the natural world as emerging out of death and the struggle of life.
In the twenty years he took to develop a brilliant idea into a
revolutionary book, Darwin went through a personal struggle every bit as
turbulent as that of the natural world he observed.
Fortunately,
he left us an extraordinary record of his brilliant insights,
observations of nature, and touching expressions of love and affection
for those around him.
He also wrote frank accounts of family
tragedies, physical illnesses and moments of self-doubt, as he labored
towards publication of the book that would change the way we see the
world.
The story is told with the benefit of Darwin’s secret notes
and correspondence, enhanced by natural history filming, powerful
imagery from the time and contributions from leading contemporary
biographers and scientists.
