Marco Polo<\/strong><\/h3>\n

by George Makepeace Towle<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Description:  <\/span>Readers of this well-crafted narrative will follow Marco Polo from his Venetian home, across the entire continent of Asia to the court of Kublai Khan, and in his various adventures and journeys while in the far-off Orient, with eager curiosity and ever-deepening interest. The central figure of the story is heroic, for Marco Polo was in all things manly, brave, persevering, intelligent, and chivalrous; and the scenes and incidents in which he was the leading actor were in the highest degree thrilling and dramatic.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
