[Anon. 1846. Review of De Strzelecki, Physical description of New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, etc. Quarterly Review 76, p. 492: "We cannot, however, willingly omit the name of Mr. Charles Darwin; who by his various successful labours and acquisitions during the four years' voyage of the Beagle, and by his various works connected with this expedition, has well sustained his family name, and taken a high place among European travellers and naturalists. We rejoice to see that his 'Journal' has now been reprinted with additions, and in a cheap form."]
