From the publisher--Charles Darwin's health improved substantially in 1866 under a dietary and exercise regime prescribed by his physician Henry Bence Jones. With renewed vigour, he worked steadily on his manuscript of Variation of Plants and Animals under Domestication, submitting all but the final chapter to his publisher in December. He also worked on the fourth, and much revised, edition of Origin which was delivered to printers in July, and preparations were begun for a third German edition of Origin. His improved health allowed him a more active social life. At Down, Darwin entertained a number of scientific colleagues whom he had known previously only through correspondence. He also made his first appearance in London scientific society in many years, touring the Zoological Gardens at Regent's Park, and appearing at a soirée at the Royal Society.

The preface begins: "The collection of Papers, formerly deposited in the Scots College at Paris, from which the contents of the present volume have been selected, was well known to our forefathers, as one of the most valuable stores for the illustration of Scottish History, and especially of those transactions in which Archbishop Betoun, the Scottish Ambassador at the French Court during the greater part of the reigns of Mary and James VI, was engaged. For many years this collection has been supposed to have been, in a great measure, lost or destroyed". Regarding the club: "The Maitland Club was a Scottish historical and literary club and text publication society, modelled on the Roxburghe Club and the Bannatyne Club. It took its name from Sir Richard Maitland (later Lord Lethington), the Scottish poet. The club was founded in Glasgow in 1828, to edit and publish early Scottish texts. Since the distribution of the publications was usually limited to members, the typical print run was between seventy and a hundred copies. The club was wound up in 1859, after publishing its own history as its 80th volume." Laid paper. Deckle fore-edge. Bound in original plain brown boards with printed paper label to spine. Interesting label pasted to front pastedown: "Wemyss Castle". Wemyss Castle is situated in Wemyss on the sea cliffs in Fife, Scotland. Historically, the castle is perhaps best known as the location where Mary, Queen of Scots, met her future husband Lord Darnley, in 1565.
