Arguably history's most prodigious traveller, the Venetian Marco Polo became a functionary in the court of the great Khan on whose behalf he visited the outlying ports that stretched from modern China to Afghanistan. This account of these experiences is riveting. (Kirkus UK)
Despite piracy, shipwreck, brigandage, and wild beasts, Polo moved in a world of highly organized commerce. This chronicle of his travels through Asia, whether read as fact or fiction, is alive with adventures, geographical information, and descriptions of natural phenomena.
