The Book Charles Darwin used to describe colors in nature on his HMS Beagle voyage.

Favorite quote: “ WHITES No.1. Snow White, is the characteristic color of the whites; it is the purest white color; it resembles new-fallen snow.”

From the publisher: “First published in 1814, Werner’s Nomenclature of Colors is a classic taxonomic guide to the colors of the natural world.This charming facsimile edition is the perfect gift for artists and scientists alike.”
