The Travels of Marco Polo

December 11th 2009 23:13
The Travels of
MARCO POLO

As some of us have noticed with delight Everyman's Library have been revising and reissuing their translations of the Classics in new editions.

I hav epreviously read the Penguin classics translaton of Marco Polo but it is also a great pleasure to rea dhtis revised edition.

It's based on the 1818 Marsden translation of the Ramusio text further revised in 1854 which has been reprinted continuously.

This 2008 edition by peter Harris has expanded notes a bibliography and mpas and other useful features all in a well bound elegant compact hardcover volume.


Enjoy!
