History Comics: The American Bison: The Buffalo's Survival Tale, Paperback/Andy Hirsch

Turn back the clock with History Comics, First Second's new nonfiction graphic novel series! In History Comics: The American Bison , learn how millions of buffalo once roamed the American prairie--until they were nearly driven to extinction. In the early 18th century the American prairies shook under the hooves of nearly 30 million bison. Fast as a horse, tall as a person, and heavier than both combined, they roamed from coast to coast. A century later, people struggled to find a single one left alive. How did the great herds disappear, and what will it take to bring them back? About author(s): Andy Hirsch is a cartoonist living in Dallas, Texas. He is the author and illustrator of several entries in First Second's Science Comics series including Dogs , Trees , Cats , and Rocks and Minerals
