On the first page of Origin Darwin established how long ago he had commenced his work on the origin of species—in 1837. But he did not say he was ready to publish then. Instead, he told his readers 'from that period to the present day I have steadily pursued the same object'. This is strikingly different from Wallace's first line of the Malay Archipelago (1869): 'My readers will naturally ask why I have delayed
