This work in the Graphic History series is based on the memoir written by Juan Bautista about his odyssey as a prisoner of Spain. He endured forty years in jails, dungeons, & presidios on both sides of the Atlantic. Juan Bautista spent two years in jail in Cusco, was freed, rearrested, & then marched 700 miles in chains over the Andes to Lima. He spent two years aboard a ship travelling around Cape Horn to Spain. Subsequently, he endured over thirty years imprisoned in Ceuta, Spain's much-feared garrison city on the northern tip of Africa. In 1822, priest Marcos Durán Martel & Maltese-Argentine naval hero Juan Bautista Azopardo arranged to have him freed & sent to the newly independent Argentina, where he became a symbol of Argentina's short-lived romance with the Incan Empire. There he penned his memoirs, but died without fulfilling his dream of returning to Peru.

This stunning graphic history relates the life & legacy of Juan Bautista Tupac Amaru, enhanced by a selection of primary sources, & chronicles the harrowing & extraordinary life of a firsthand witness to the Age of Revolution.
