WELCOME to the largest collection of Darwin's writings ever assembled. For a basic, non-academic, entryway click here. For a complete list click: contents. See the press release & what readers are saying.

This site contains Darwin's complete publications and many of his handwritten manuscripts. There are over 50,000 searchable text pages and 40,000 images. There is also the largest Darwin bibliography and manuscript catalogue ever published. More than 150 ancillary texts are included, ranging from reference works to reviews, obituaries, descriptions of the Beagle specimens and related works for understanding Darwin's context. Free audio mp3 versions of his works are also available.

Most of the works on this site appear online for the first time such as the first editions of Journal of Researches, Descent of Man, Zoology and all six editions of the Origin of species (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th). There are many never before published manuscripts such as Darwin's Beagle field notebooks and complete images of his early theoretical notebooks.

Many of the books belonged to Darwin's family or are signed by him. See for example Life of Erasmus Darwin, Coral reefs or Variation.

An enormous quantity of materials are still to come: more editions, translations, editorial introductions, notes and manuscript transcriptions and the papers in the Darwin Archive at Cambridge University Library. Assistance with scanning, proof reading or transcribing is warmly welcomed.
