Description:

Ibn Battutah—ethnographer, bigrapher, anecdotal historian and occasional botanist—was justnbsp;21 when he set out in 1325 from his native Tangier on a pilgramage to Mecca. He did not return to Morocco for anothernbsp;29 years, traveling instead through more than 40countries on the modern map, coveringnbsp;75,000 miles and getting as far north as the Volga, as far east as China, and as far south as Tanzania. He wrote of his travels, and comes across as a superb ethnographer, biographer, anecdotal historian, and occasional botanist and gastronome. With this edition by Mackintosh-Smith, Battuta'sTravelstakes its place alongside other indestructible masterpieces of the travel-writing genre.
