The Who, the What, and the When: 65 Artists Illustrate the Secret Sidekicks of History
by Jenny Volvoski, Julia Rothman, and Matt Lamothe
Illustrators: Laura Callaghan, Katrin Coetzer, Leslie Herman, Sarah Jacoby, Cun Shi, Phoebe Wahl, etc.
Foreword by Kurt Andersen
Published by Chronicle Books, 2014
170 pages: hardcover: artpaper: 21 x 26 cm (1 kg)
In the bestselling tradition of “The Where, the Why, and the How”, this offbeat illustrated history reveals 65 people you've probably never heard of, but who helped shape the word as we know it. Muses and neighbors, friends and relatives, accomplices and benefactors--such as Michael and Joy Brown, who gifted Harper Lee a year's worth of wages to help her write “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Or John Ordway, the colleague who walked with Lewis and Clark every step of the way. Each eye-opening story of these unsung heroes is written by a notable historian and illustrated by a top indie artist, making “The Who, the What, and the When” a treasure trove of word and image for history buffs, art lovers, and anyone who rejoices in unexpected discovery.
“The most generous book in the world.... There is something quite wonderful about witnessing one human being selflessly bolster the creative achievement of another. That's precisely what illustrator extraordinaire Julia Rothman and her collaborators Jenny Volvovski and Matt Lamothe celebrate in “The Who, the What, and the When”--an illuminating inventory of the little-known champions behind a wide range of cultural icons. Each story is told by a different writer and illustrated by a different artist, all of astounding range and talent.” --Brain Pickings
“A charmingly illustrated compendium of history's most fascinating-and largely unknown-sidekicks.” --Entertainment Weekly
