Here is William Dalrymple's highly praised and greatly entertaining account of his 1986 trip made while a student at Cambridge, which retraced Marco Polo's route across land from Jerusalem to Xanadu. With him, he took a phial of Holy Oil, 600 pounds and Laura until Lahore, and Louisa from there to Xanadu.©1995 CSA Word (P)1995 CSA Word Asia Travel Writing & Commentary Middle East Iran

William Dalrymple wrote this as a young man, a university finals student -and continues to be a brilliant historian. These books are incredibly detailed in research and he obviously has made this his lifelong passion. I have met him three times now at the Writers Festival in Jaipur and in Sri Lanka. I have his other signed books and I’m currently listening to the gold Road on Audible..

Storytelling at a premium. The narrator infused the written words with all the wonder, adventure and charm you would expect to find sitting around a fireplace listening to a magical story.
