Synopsis
Marco Polo was born into a family of merchants in medieval Venice. His family taught him all the skills he would need to become a successful trader. When he was fifteen, he set off on his first trading expedition - to China. This book follows his journey from the canals of Venice to the markets of the Middle East; across the haunted sands of the Gobi desert to Kublai Khan's magnificent capital in China.
