Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Yeoman, Martin Ilustrador. Paperback. In 1325, the great Arab traveler Ibn Battutah set out from his native Tangier in North Africa on pilgrimage to Mecca. By the time he returned nearly thirty years later, he had seen most of the known world, covering three times the distance allegedly traveled by the great Venetian explorer Marco Polosome 75,000 miles in all. Captivated by Ibn Battutahs account of his journey, the Arabic scholar and award-winning travel writer Tim Mackintosh-Smith set out to follow in the peripatetic Moroccans footsteps. Traversing Egyptian deserts and remote islands in the Arabian Sea, visiting castles in Syria and innumerable souks in medieval Islams great cities, Mackintosh-Smith sought clues to Ibn Battutahs life and times, encountering the ghost of IB in everything from place names (in Tangier alone, a hotel, street, airport, and ferry bear IBs name), to dietary staples to an Arabic online dating service and introducing us to a world of unimaginable wonders. By necessity, Mackintosh-Smiths journey may have cut some corners (I only wish I had the odd thirty years to spare, and Ibn Battutahs enviable knack of extracting large amounts of cash, robes and slaves from compliant rulers.) But in this wry, evocative, and uniquely engaging travelogue, he spares no effort in giving readers an unforgettable glimpse into both the present-day and fourteenth-century Islamic worlds.
