The doctoral research of historian Jessica van Horssen into the history of the Jeffrey mine and the town of Asbestos, Quebec, has been reworked as ... a graphic novel. Worth a look.
It's not just Van Horssen's research in this. She also wrote the graphic novel -- it's narrated by the mine itself -- and even plays the harmonica for the online multimedia publication. The artwork by Radna-Prema McAllister is striking.
Impresario of this inventive transformation seems to be the ever-creative Joy Parr and something called Megaprojects New Media. Nice work.
Update: I understand this link may be a better and more permanent connection to Megaprojects New Media and the Asbestos GR. (h/t to H-Canada.)
