A collection of tales by master illustrator and storyteller Sergio Toppi featuring a series of fables set in Old World Italy, and a feature-length what-if tale about the New World, speculating on a history where Christopher Columbus never made it to America.

These classic works have never been published in English until now. Toppi's influence on the modern comic industry is supported by popular legends including Frank Miller, Bill Sienkiewicz, Dave McKean, Walter Simonson, and Sean Gordon Murphy.
