ImageEveryone knows Charles Darwin. Person who proposed the theory of evolution. For decades available only to scholars at Cambridge University Library, the private papers of Charles Darwin, one of the most influential scientists in history, can now be seen by anyone online and free of charge. This is the largest ever publication of Darwin papers and manuscripts, totalling about 20,000 items in nearly 90,000 electronic images.

These private papers include first draft of his theory of evolution, notes from the voyage of the Beagle and Emma Darwin's recipe book etc.

You can browse through Darwin's papers online for FREE @ Darwin-online.org.uk. If you are into those history and stuff, you can check it out. For me, I am just concern about sharing this "news" to you all.
