In the bestselling tradition of The Where; the Why; and the How; this offbeat illustrated history reveals 65 people youve probably never heard of; but who helped shape the word as we know it. Muses and neighbors; friends and relatives; accomplices and benefactorsmdash;such as Michael and Joy Brown; who gifted Harper Lee a years 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.
