Overview Dive into the oceans — and into the depths of history — with the Argonaut Queen, an expertly-told story that weaves together the marine science of these fascinating creatures and the woman who we have to thank for it, Jeanne Villepreux-Power, one of the earliest studiers of this subspecies of octopus and the many features that make it so unique. Though Villepreux-Power’s scientific illustrations were lost to the seas in a shipwreck, this book pays homage to them through exquisitely-rendered, real-to-life drawings of the creature she dedicated her life to.
