It is most certainly not the best evidence. It is what is in high
school textbooks which Wells correctly points out are in a sorry
state. However, what Wells thinks this means is extremely wrong.
Creationists have worked for years to get as much as possible about
evolution deleted from biology textbooks and are now complaining
loudly that the evidence for evolution in textbooks is lousy.
BTW I own several biology textbooks and couldn't find Heckel's
drawings in any of them. I did find pictures of embryonic homologies
which are vaguely similar to Heckel's drawings. If Wells is claiming
those are Heckel's drawings he is being dishonest.
