Leonardo da Vinci was trained to be a painter and, in fact, produced what is arguable the most famous painting in the world, the "Mona Lisa". Yet Leonardo's interests and achievements spread far beyond the world of art. He studied astronomy, botany, anatomy, and geology, and designed and drew plans for hundreds of inventions, many of which fore-shadowed the achievements of men who lived four hundred years after Leonardo died. Emily Hahn brings this quintessential Rennaissance Man to life in her delightful and easy to read biography. Illustrated by Mimi Korach, Cover illustration by Drew Thurston- Volume includes "Contents" and "Index"
