Sedgwick Personal Narrative

Darwin never wanted to become a doctor and follow in his family footsteps. His father was a doctor. He was more interested in exploring new perspectives. The main thing that captured his attention was when Henslow persuade Charles to read Alexander Von Humboldt’s Personal Narrative that made him want to travel and see the new world. Sedgwick, whom was a geologist, trained the way he prepared for this voyage mainly by geological training so that Charles would be more “hands on.”
