Winner of the Pulitzer PrizeWinner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize On a desert island in the heart of the Galapagos archipelago, where Darwin received his first inklings of the theory of evolution, two scientists, Peter and Rosemary Grant, have spent twenty years proving that Darwin did not know the strength of his own theory. For among the finches of Daphne Major, natural selection is neither rare nor slow: it is taking place by the hour, and we can watch. In this dramatic story of groundbreaking scientific research, Jonathan Weiner follows these scientists as they watch Darwin's finches and come up with a new understanding of life itself. The Beak of the Finch is an elegantly written and compelling masterpiece of theory and explication in the tradition of Stephen Jay Gould. With a new preface.

On sale purchase and glad I waited.
Size: 33W x 30L, Color: Stone
I'm 6'1 186lbs size 33x30, I don't workout but for whatever reason my calves pose a problem with a few brands and styles of pants. These feel wonderful and the color is awesome. Minus the tight area in the calves these are perfect for summer in Oklahoma. I usually wear these with light brown or gray penny loafers no socks or some suede Allen Edmonds chelsea boots and a white vneck tshirt. I got these on an extremely good sale so that helps. I wouldn't pay full price for whatever that's worth.
