Illustrated Non-Fiction
Non-fiction isn't always easy to love — especially if you're a visual learner. Some genres lean toward dense, heavy writing (we’re looking at you, History), which can make great topics feel less accessible.
That’s why we love these illustrated editions: they break complex subjects into digestible chapters, enriched with beautiful artwork, diagrams, and design. Here are four of our favourites that prove information can be both smart and stunning.
Entangled Life - For anyone who loves nature and wants to see the world through the eyes of fungi — strange, vital, and more connected than you ever imagined.
The Secret to Superhuman Strength - A witty, philosophical exploration of strength, ageing, and self-worth — perfect for readers who know fitness is never just about the body.
Wine: A Graphic History - Finally! A history book for the boozer! Wino’s unite!
On Tyranny - Interested in politics but not into heavy non-fiction? On Tyranny is 20 concise, powerful lessons on resisting authoritarianism in a clear, digestible format
