The Adventures of Alexander Von Humboldt (Comic Strip)

Andrea Wulf partners with artist Lillian Melcher to bring Humboldt's South America expedition to life, complete with excerpts from his own diaries, atlases, and publications. She gives us an intimate portrait of the man who predicted human-induced climate change, fashioned poetic narrative out of scientific observation, and influenced iconic figures such as Simón Bolívar, Thomas Jefferson, Charles Darwin, and John Muir.
