Jemmy Button

by Jennifer Uman and Valerio Vidali, words by Alix Barzelay - £7.99  Templar Publishing (2014)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781848776159 | ISBN 10: 1848776152

Inspired by the life of Jemmy Button – a native of Tierra del Fuego who was brought to England in the mid-1800s to be 'educated' and 'civilised' by Captain Robert FitzRoy – this book illustrates Jemmy's bizarre encounters and his return back home.
 
Collaborating across continents, without a common language, Valerio's precision and Jennifer's primitive style have resulted in a story unlike any other.
