To Louis Bertillon 18 December 1871
The transcript of this letter is not yet available online.
Summary
Thanks for his article Valeur philosophique de l’hypothèse du transformisme (Bertillon 1870), which is very clear.
Would not himself trust so much in Agassiz’s conclusions.
Glad the essay has been published, as he believes ‘there are but few in France who admit the doctrine of evolution’.
