Herge and the Treasures of Tintin

Tintin is beloved around the world—and inspired Steven Spielberg to make a Golden Globe-winning and Oscar-nominated film. Hergé and the Treasures of Tintin tells the story of how Georges Rémi became Hergé, how his private life and interests influenced his work, how Tintin came to be, and what sparked Hergé's other delightful characters. In addition to 20 beautifully reproduced removable facsimile documents—including sketchbook extracts, illustrated letters, personal drawings, and posters—special information boxes discuss many of the people who appear in the Tintin stories.
