Description
Travels with a Tangerine: A Journey in the Footnotes of Ibn Battutah
A travel writer's personal journey to follow in the footsteps of a 14th-century Moroccan explorer, tracing his eccentric trip from Tangier to Constantinople.
This book is an engaging blend of personalities, history and contemporary observation, as one man sets out to understand the life and experiences of Ibn Battutah, a spiritual backpacker, social climber, temporary hermit and failed ambassador who braved brigands, blisters and his own prejudices on a monumental journey.
