The Complete Work of Charles Darwin Online

In October 2006 [link BBC article], Cambridge University decided to put the complete works of Charles Darwin online, and it seems that now the project has evolved, to include his private papers too.

After making the original draft of Darwin’s "On The Origin Of Species", some 20,000 other writings and 90,000 images available to the public now.

The collection includes thousands of notes and drafts of his scientific writings, notes from the voyage of the Beagle when he began to formulate his controversial theory of evolution, and his first recorded doubts about the permanence of species.

It also contains photographs of Darwin and his family, newspaper clippings, reviews of his books and much more.
