By Hergé.
Tintin travels to China in a tale considered Hergé's first masterpiece, as well as Tintin's only foray into actual history. Political tensions combined with chilling threats of violence give the story a realistic sense of danger. Hergé paints a vivid picture of China and denounces ethnic prejudices--though ironically, his depiction of Japanese businessmen is verge on parody. This facsimile edition appears as it did 70 years ago, but with a new translation. Red cloth spine, four full-page color plates.
