Excerpt from Charles Darwin as Geologist: The Rede Lecture; Given at the Darwin Centennial Commemoration, on 24 June 1909
When the Vice-Chancellor honoured me with his invitation to give the Rede Lecture this year, he informed me that it would be included in the proceedings of the present Celebration. Although he left me free in the choice of a subject, it was obvious that the lecturer could hardly hesitate to select a theme which would have reference, more or less direct, to the illustrious Naturalist whose Centenary the University had resolved to commemorate.
