Synopsis:
Ibn Battutah was just twenty-one when he set out from his home town in Morocco on a pilgrimage to Mecca. It was 1325, within a year of Marco Polo’s death, and it marked the beginning of an odyssey which was to last twenty-nine years and cover three times the distance of Polo’s well-known journey.

In this elegantly abridged version of Ibn Battutah’s ‘Travels’, Tim Mackintosh-Smith brings the adventures of the writer, and the medieval world through which he travelled, vividly to life. Anecdotal, witty, gossipy and adventurous, this is a fascinating traveller’s yarn and a masterpiece of the genre.
