[This Thing of Darkness] [By book cover

[This Thing of Darkness] [By

Harry Thompson] [January, 2006]

Harry Thompson

"Venture into the 19th century with an epic tale of sea-faring adventure, exploring the lives of Captain Robert Fitzroy and Charles Darwin aboard 'The Beagle'. This book delves into the themes of adventure, emotion, tragedy, and history, all while shedding light on the clash of beliefs between two men: the Christian Tory aristocrat and his passenger, the liberal minor cleric who challenged everything Fitzroy stood for. Experience the thrill and heartache of this gripping tale."
