Items related to Travels of Ibn Battutah
Synopsis
Ibn Battutah was just twenty-one when he set out in 1325 from his native Tangier on a pilgrimage to Mecca. He did not return for another twenty-nine years, travelling instead through more than forty countries, covering 75,000 miles and getting as far north as the Volga, as far east as China and as far south as Tanzania. Battutah comes across as a superb ethnographer, biographer, anecdotal historian, occasional botanist and gastronome. With this new edition Battutahs Travels takes its place alongside other indestructible masterpieces of the travel-writing genre.
