The grandson of British Naturalist Charles Darwin, golf writer and amateur golfer Bernard Darwin was an authority on Charles Dickens. When Oxford Press issued all classics by Dickens around 1940, each with a foreword by a Dickensian scholar, Darwin was chosen to contribute the foreword to The Pickwick Papers.
