E-raamat: Travels of Marco Polo

Venetian adventurer Marco Polo (1254-January 8, 1324) is well-known for his book 'The Travels of Marco Polo,' which details his journey to and adventures in Asia. Polo and his family made a great deal of travel; from 1271 to 1295, they traveled from Europe to Asia, spending 17 of those years in China. The narratives of Marco Polo's journeys in Asia were collected into a book titled "e;The Description of the World,"e; which was then renamed "e;The Travels of Marco Polo."e; A few years after arriving back in Venice from China, Marco was in charge of a ship engaged in combat with Genoa, a rival city. After being apprehended and given a prison term in Genoa, he ultimately made the acquaintance of Rustichello, a writer who was also a prisoner. As the two men grew close, Marco shared with Rustichello his experiences, sights, and accomplishments from his time in Asia. With the novel, Marco became well-known. It was published in Latin, Italian, and French and quickly rose to the top of the European reading lists. However, not many readers choose to accept Marco's story as true. They believed that it was a work of fiction, the creation of a man with a vivid imagination.
