The Blues in Black and White is the first installment of The Blue Tunics series to be translated into English, targeting the growing American graphic novel market. This series follows the escapades of Corporal Blutch and Sergeant Chesterfield as they navigate the challenges of war while striving to maintain their friendship. Blutch believes that desertion is the key to survival, while Chesterfield is committed to fighting for their cause, leading to differing approaches to their duties. Extremely popular in Europe, The Blue Tunics comprises nearly fifty volumes that depict the adventures of two Union soldiers during the American Civil War, crafted by Raoul Cauvin and illustrated by Louis Salvérieus. While the war stories are fictional, they draw inspiration from historical events and genuine American heroism. The series captivates a diverse audience across Europe, appealing to readers of all ages due to its engaging illustrations, historical context, accessible writing style, and humor. This illustrated format serves as a valuable resource for educators aiming to engage reluctant readers. Until now, the series has remained largely unknown to American audiences.
