ABSTRACT

Frank's experiences studying medicine were quite different. He started at the Birmingham General Hospital in 1838 and rather enjoyed the charade of medicine. He particularly liked working in the dispensary. In summer of 1828 when Frank first met Charles the Galton family was already large. Francis Galton also published an account of his travels in South Africa but it is almost embarrassing to write about them in the same manner as Darwin's. Louisa was a plain-looking girl and Galton confessed that his attachment to her was neither romantic nor physical. Louisa was intellectually gifted and genuinely supported with interest on all his projects. After all, the hero worshipper likes his hero to admire him back. Perhaps he could make his mark by writing as many books about science as his cousin appeared to be doing.
