The acclaimed Prussian naturalist Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) was referred to by Charles Darwin as 'the greatest scientific traveller who ever lived'. During his voyage aboard the Beagle, Darwin acquired a copy of this two-volume 1811 New York edition of Humboldt's account of the land and people of Mexico.
