Alfred Russel Wallace was a naturalist and explorer of the 19th century perhaps best known for his independent discovery of the theory of evolution by natural selection; his paper was jointly published with Charles Darwin's paper on the subject in 1858. Wallace's manuscripts and correspondence, dating from 1840-1913, preserves a record of his career and provides insight into his many conversations, relationships, and discoveries across his fields of scientific study. Many letters contain lengthy descriptions and even transcriptions in some cases, allowing for a rich keyword search across hundreds of objects.
