Dive into the
oceans — and into the depths of history — with the Argonaut Queen, an expertly-told
story that weaves together the marine science of these fascinating creatures
and the woman who we have to thank for it, Jeanne Villepreux-Power, one of the
earliest studiers of this subspecies of octopus and the many features that make
it so unique.



Though
Villepreux-Power’s scientific illustrations were lost to the seas in a
shipwreck, this book pays homage to them through exquisitely-rendered,
real-to-life drawings of the creature she dedicated her life to.
