This review is from: Tracking Marco Polo (Hardcover)
I am a fan of Tim Severin, and have read a number of his books, but when I eventually passed them on, I kept this one. And a fascinating item is that his companion was a young man called Michael Johnson, who turns out to be the father of Boris who was the Lord Mayor of London. Both he and Tim were very young and still at university when they made this adventure.
A very good read.

Still Relevant. Great adventure,
By Michael J. Svoboda - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tracking Marco Polo (Hardcover)
Tim Severin always makes non-fiction as interesting as fiction. This book is his first travel narrative written when he was only 22. He describes the people, places, things, he meets along the route once traveled by Marco Polo, and we feel like we're experiencing them too. This book was written in 1962 and ironically, the outdated parts (Iran being refered to as Persia), make the book more interesting rather than date it. I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys reading about unfamiliar and unusual people and places. Enjoy!
