L'incroyable histoire de la géographie #[nn]

From Jean-Robert Pitte, Benoist Simmat, and Philippe Bercovici comes this bande dessinée celebration of 200 years of world exploration, published by Les Arènes BD. The cover assembles a vivid crowd of historical figures — explorers, military officers, and adventurers in period dress, one holding a magnifying glass and flower, another clutching binoculars, a woman in purple among the group — rendered in Bercovici's lively, expressive line work. It's a warm and genuinely fun invitation to revisit the great age of geographical discovery through the unique lens of French comics.
