The Story of Marco Polo traces his legendary journey along the Silk Road to the court of Kublai Khan in China, presenting the wonders he encountered across Persia, Central Asia, and the Far East in vivid, accessible prose. L. Du Garde Peach, celebrated for his contributions to the Ladybird Books series, illustrates these epic travels with an engaging and enthusiastic tone that brings the ancient world to life for curious young minds. The narrative details the marvels that Polo documented upon his return to Europe — accounts so astonishing that many of his contemporaries refused to believe them — and underscores his enduring legacy as a bridge between East and West. It remains a timeless introduction to one of the most remarkable journeys ever undertaken.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48820226326747,"sku":"2026770000895-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d4e7b0df-7a1f-43c5-b907-a21a1a7b03de.png?v=1780054652","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770000895-secondhand-the-story-of-marco-polo","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
