The following is a transcript of the HNN podcast which was originally released on July 30, 2008. In this month's audio podcast we dedicated the entire program to one story. During the 1970s, P. Thomas Carroll read and transcribed hundreds of Charles Darwin's personal correspondences for research purposes. Carroll shares his story of becoming intimately familiar with the great 19th century evolutionary biologist over the course of several years and 14,000 letters. Wed, 27 Aug 2008 00:00:00 -0400
