Kiki Fox, Rafael Sternbach - Charles Kingsley

Influence

Kingsley was one of the first people to embrace his contemporary, Charles Darwin, and the then controversial idea of evolution. He was given an early copy of the book to review, and found Darwin's ideas quite sensible. Darwin even praised Kingsley in later edition of his book, referring to him as a "celebrated author and a divine."
