Darwin first edition returns to Boston Public Library
An 1859 first edition of Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species, one of 1,250 copies, was returned to the Boston Public Library after 80 years. Julie and David Geissler inherited it, found its value could reach 72 000 dollars, and decided to return it. The book, stolen in 1923, will not leave the library again.
