Description

Ibn Battuta was once no atypical traveller. Between 1325 CE when he set off and 1354 CE when he after all returned home to stay, he had visited about 40 brand new countries and travelled more or less 75,000 miles, going on foot, camel, horse, wagon, boat and even sled.

His travels took him to nearly each and every a part of the Muslim world on the time, from Morocco to Mecca, through Persia and Iraq, down the west coast of Africa, into Russia, over to India and even across to China.

Ibn Battuta’s journey gives us an enchanting window into what the world was once like in the fourteenth century. With illustrations, photographs, and maps, the wealthy and diverse world that produced Ibn Battuta is vividly brought alive.
