Georges Remi, better known as Herge, is widely regarded as the greatest twentieth-century master of European comics whose Tintin books have enchanted millions of readers worldwide. Published to coincide with Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson's first Tintin film "Secret of the Unicorn," this beautifully written biography draws on Herge's private letters and exclusive family interviews, bringing new insight into the man and the inspiration behind his work. Raphael Taylor has a PhD from Kings College, London, and is a recognized expert on Herge and Tintin. His previous writings include contributions to the "Encyclopedia of Comic Books and Graphic Novels."
