  <dc:title>Darwin to Francis Galton</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Letter from Charles Darwin to Galton regarding the questionnaire Darwin filled out for Galton's book English Men of Science. Darwin makes additional comments on his education and early influences and states that he "cannot remember the time when I had not a passion for collecting". His son Frank [Francis Darwin] wished to describe his father's character as "sober, honest &amp; industrious". Darwin also questions Galton on a method for estimating the mean height of fifty men using only the measurements of the ten tallest.</dc:description>
