Published for the series' 25th anniversary, Hyrule Historia is the book that opened the modern Zelda art book era: the official series timeline, artwork from across the games, and a Skyward Sword prequel manga by Akira Himekawa, all in one volume.
The Japanese edition is a different shelf object from the American one. Dark Horse completely redesigned the cover for the West. Japan kept it plain: a brown field with only the gold 25th anniversary crest, no illustration at all.
