Science historian Dr John van Wyhe and his fellow researchers at the National University of Singapore have compiled the entire collection of Alfred Russel Wallace’s documented life and discoveries from his scientific travels. The memoir includes 28,000 pages of historical manuscripts and 22,000 magnificent illustrations. All these documents, published and unpublished, are now freely available on their website Wallace Online.
