Drawn Across Borders: True Stories of Human Migration - by George Butler (Hardcover)

This book is a powerful work of art, compassion, and activism that uses journalism and illustration to bear witness to the effects of war on civilians whose lives are treated as mere collateral for those in power.

Through twelve portraits from the front lines of migration, award-winning artist George Butler shares stories of people who have been forced by circumstances beyond their control to leave their homes and venture into the unknown in search of safety and a better life.

With sharply defined ink lines and washes of watercolor that bleed into one another, Butler creates a moving testament to our shared humanity and the universal urge for safety and security.

Whether sketching by the hospital bed of a ten-year-old Syrian boy who survived an airstrike or talking with a Masai herdsman forced to abandon his rural Kenyan home for the Kibera slums, Butler's beautiful portraits form an eloquent cry for understanding and empathy.

Don't miss out on this powerful and thought-provoking book that will change the way you see the world.
