ABOUT THE BOOK
The relationship between the two men who helped introduce the world to the theory of evolution.
Exploring the Victorian era's intellectual upheaval following the publication of Darwin's theory of evolution, focusing on the central figures of Charles Darwin and Thomas Henry Huxley.
The title comes from a speech by Benjamin Disraeli, who famously asked if man was an ape or an angel, siding with the latter, and the book details the controversy and debate that arose as Huxley championed Darwin's ideas against religious and social norms.
