Between 1324 and 1354 he journeyed through North Africa and Asia Minor to Mecca, through Central Asia to India and as far as China. On a separate voyage he crossed the Sahara to the Muslim lands of West Africa. His journeys covered over 75,000 miles and he is the only medieval traveller known to have visited every Muslim state of the time. The first two volumes record his earliest journeys through Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Arabia, Persia, Iraq, Asia Minor and South Russia. The third volume records his visits to Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. There are detailed descriptions of the towns on the way and the customs of the inhabitants.
