This essay will be about what I would do in my autobiography that is different from what Darwin did. This essay will be based on The Autobiography of Charles Darwin by Charles Darwin. There were many things that could have been improved with his autobiography. His style of writing an autobiography is fascinating and would be much different from my style.

He mentioned many details in his autobiography but he didn’t get into any of them in vivid detail. That was a problem that I would like to not have on my own. Everyone has accomplishments in their lives and that should be something that you would want to show to others. He did not explain any accomplishments he had. Darwin explained some interesting things about his life and traveling throughout it, but that doesn’t make up for the rest of everything that he didn’t explain. The book overall doesn’t really wow me as the reader, and he could have definitely included more things that would have watched the reader’s eye.

As I said before, the lack of detail in his autobiography speaks volumes to me. It is a huge problem for me as a reader. He didn’t convey certain details that could have been helpful to make his autobiography more interesting. The lack of detail made his autobiography bland and boring. When you read a book, you should be able to form a mental picture and you should be able to imagine what is happening in your head. In this autobiography, it is much harder to do. This all stems from the problem of details. In my autobiography, I will include almost anything I can think of and describe it in as much detail as I can. It will make it way more interesting and not boring, like his autobiography.

Another big problem I have with his autobiography is his view on what he “figured out”, “evolution”. I hate the view of evolution, and that “people evolved from monkeys”. That is very false and just hearing evolution makes me feel angry and uncomfortable. Reading his autobiography does not change how I feel about evolution or about him in general. Ever since I figured out that evolution wasn’t real, I have had hatred against it. And a lot of movies and tv shows have the aspect of evolution in them. In my autobiography, I will only include things that are very important to not take away from my life and the interest of my book.

In his autobiography, he talked about the other side of himself that wasn’t very good at getting along with the public. That was a detail that I wouldn’t have explained in my autobiography. Because of his ideas of how the world worked and how people evolved, he tried to explain his ideas to the public. While many scientists defended Darwin, religious leaders, and others immediately rejected his theory, not only because it directly contradicted the creation story in the biblical book of Genesis, but also because – on a broader level – it implied that life had developed due to natural processes rather than as the creation of a loving God. I would mention mostly the good things about myself and the good things I had done, not the bad things.

In conclusion, I would do many things differently than what Charles Darwin did in his autobiography.
