Charles Darwin stayed in Plymouth ahead of his voyage of discovery aboard HMS Beagle in 1831. He undertook preparatory work at the Plymouth Athenaeum ahead of his voyage and later became a member of the Society.

Join Emma Darwin at City College Plymouth, or online, for her journey through the artists, scientists, composers and poets of the Darwin-Wedgwood-Galton clan, as seen through the lens of her creative struggle to write fiction about them.

Books about Emma Darwin’s great-great-grandparents, Charles and Emma Darwin, are legion, but when she agreed to write a novel about her family, she looked for stories less often told.
