Marco Polo said he traveled more widely than "any man since the Creation." On a journey from Italy to the court of Kublai Khan in far-off China, he claimed he saw rocks burn, sorcerers sing sharks to sleep, and bandits conjure sandstorms at will. Was he the world's biggest liar or the world's greatest explorer? Either way, The Description of the World, his book about his twenty-four years away from home, made him famous-and changed history. Full-color illustrations, archival and period artwork. Author's note.
