The Story of Marco Polo
"Climb into the saddle of one of Marco Polo's pack horses, and begin an epic journey across the wilds of Central Asia. Tackle jagged mountains, deep ravines, haunted deserts, bandits, and highwaymen as you travel along the ancient silk road. Pay homage at the court of Mongol emperor Kublai Khan, the greatest ruler in the world. Follow Marco Polo's expedition stage by stage, and read about his many true-life adventures." --Page [4] of cover.
