Herge & The Treasures of Tintin looks at the influences on Herge and the backgrounds to the stories of Tintin and how they were produced. Integrated with over 180 illustrations and around 20 beautifully reproduced facsimile documents, the book explains how Georges Remi became Herge, how his private life and interests influenced his work, how the young journalist Tintin was developed and what sparked the delightful characters of Captain Haddock, Snowy, Professor Calculus, the Thom(p)sons, Chang and Bianca Castafiore. Plus there are special information boxes on many of the numerous other individuals who appeared in the Tintin stories.
