Martha Jane Cannary #[nn]

This Futuropolis collection brings together the adventurous life of Martha Jane Cannary — the woman the world came to know as Calamity Jane — in a beautifully understated package. Matthieu Blanchin's cover art sets a quietly evocative tone: a lone figure rests on the open plains, surrounded by a vast herd of bison stretching across a muted, sepia-toned landscape that feels both intimate and expansive. Winner of the Prix Essentiel at Angoulême 2009 and the Prix Ouest-France Quai des Bulles, this 2015 edition is a compelling entry point into one of the American frontier's most fascinating lives.
