Book Description

This early work on the life and travels of Johann Schiltberger is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition.

Its 300 pages contain a wealth of information on the history of the world during the fifteenth century and is a fascinating read for anyone interested in this period. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce.
