Would highly recommend Every Living Thing by Jason Roberts - wonderful dual biography of Linnaeus and Buffon. Many fascinating anecdotes about both - especially Linnaeus, who was a bit of a character.

Roberts also makes the point that Buffon's writings describe many elements of evolution and biogeography well before Darwin or Lamarck, but that his work was largely ignored after the French Revolution because of his connection to the monarchy. An interesting example of how these political events shape science and science history long afterwards.

A grey stone statue of a sitting mouse wearing a suit and top hat and holding an open book. Around the statue on the ground: fluffy white snow. Snow also sits on the top rim of the book, the mouse's arms and shoulders, and on the top hat. Behind the statue: spindly trees with brown/orange leaves littered with snow. All in front of a building with reflective windows and uneven tan stone.
