The Donner Party expedition is one of the most notorious stories in all of American history, but it's also a fascinating snapshot of the westward expansion of the US. From the preparation for the journey to each leg of the trip, this book shows the specific bad decisions that lead to the party's predicament in the Sierra Nevadas. Hale focuses on the Reed family (all of the children in this family survive), and their father, James Reed, is a central figure in the story. It's hazardous, it's got a lot of funny moments, it's got kids in central roles - and it's America's favorite gruesome horror-history story. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W) Jody Duncan, Lisa Fitzpatrick To create his epic Avatar, James Cameron and his crew had to invent the tools needed to achieve a transforming vision. The story of their journey, from Avatar's conception to its realization on the screen, is an epic in itself. The Making of Avatar tells that epic story, from early brainstorming sessions in Malibu to a vast production effort spanning continents. Along the way, the filmmakers designed new techniques to bring the nuances of human performances to the screen, affording the director unprecedented control within the world he envisioned.

The Uncanny X-Men Trading Cards features award-winning illustrator Jim Lee’s legendary X-Men art with this annotated, digest-size collection of the complete 1992 set—including 4 bonus cards! In 1992, Marvel Entertainment commissioned Jim Lee, the young superstar penciller behind X-Men#1, the bestselling single-issue comic book of the modern era, to create all of the art for a new set of 105 trading cards—a set that would go on to become one of the most celebrated in Marvel history and the gold standard for non-sports trading-card artwork and design. The Uncanny X-Men Trading Cards: The Complete Series collects, for the first time, the front and back of each collectible card in the set—including Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Magneto, and Deadpool—along with select scans of Lee’s original and digitally remastered art. It also includes an introduction by and original interviews conducted by writer and set editor Bob Budiansky with the Marvel staff who helped assemble, design, and create these iconic trading cards. Lee was the first artist to create all of the original artwork for a Marvel card set; his dynamic character portraits, battle scenes, team shots, and innovative nine-card Danger Room puzzle cards helped fuel both the ‘90s boom of comic-book trading cards and the general public’s mania for all things X-Men. Fans of the chart-topping comics could turn to the cards for further insight into their favorite characters, as Marvel writers and editors included bios, stats, and trivia for each hero and villain. Whether you’re a long-time X-Men fan or a newcomer to the series, this handsome book is a must-have. Foreword by Ed Piskor. Introduction by Bob Budiansky.
