Osprey Graphic History is a series of illustrated history books published by Osprey Publishing, the company known for its extensive military history catalogue. The nine volumes cover subjects including the American Civil War ironclad battles, the Battle of the Alamo, the Bombing of Pearl Harbor, and polar exploration. Each volume uses a graphic novel format to present historical events, combining illustration with factual narrative.
The series draws on Osprey’s long expertise in illustrated military history, translating that approach into a sequential art format. Subjects range from naval warfare to land battles to exploration, giving the series variety across its run. The books are intended as accessible introductions to historical events rather than comprehensive academic treatments.
All nine volumes are listed in the reading order table below. Each covers a different subject and can be read independently, though readers with a general interest in military history may find the whole series useful as a collection.
