Description

At the start of the 19th-century, John James Audubon embarked upon an epic ornithological quest across America with nothing but his artist s materials, an assistant, a gun and an all-consuming passion for birds…This beautiful volume tells the story of an incredible artist and adventurer: one who encapsulates the spirit of early America, when the wilderness felt limitless and was still greatly unexplored. Based on Audubon s own retellings, this graphic novel version of his travels captures the wild and adventurous spirit of a truly exceptional naturalist and painter.
