  Cambridge appeals for the recovery of missing Charles Darwin's notebooks with “Tree of Life” sketches

  

  Two of Charles Darwin-s notebooks containing his pioneering ideas on evolution and his famous “Tree of Life” sketch are missing, believed stolen, the Cambridge University Library said on Tuesday. The British scientist filled the leather notebooks in 1837 after returning from his voyage on the HMS Beagle. The library said they were worth millions of pounds.
