Birthday boys: Charley and Abe

Darwin and Lincoln
Born the same day, 202 years ago, thousands of miles apart. Everybody knows the story of the poor kid born in a log cabin, learned to read by the light of a little fireplace, walked miles to return 2 cents to somebody, or was it a dime? The stuff of legends who grew up to become the President of the United States. But how many know the story of the rich kid born in a small English town, suffered through boarding school, could not figure out what to do with himself, became one of the most significant natural scientists in the world.

Read THE TRUE ADVENTURES OF CHARLEY DARWIN and find about the fascinating man behind the long, white beard.
