Marco Polo - Part 2

Professor of History Dr. Pat Larash and author Ben Thompson continue the story of Marco Polo, who now embarks on his own expedition to the Far East. His adventures take him to the ends of the known world, and find him constantly embroiled in the intrigues of the Mongol Khans, marching with armies, negotiating with kings, and sailing waters uncharted on any European maps. He returns home only to find himself imprisoned in a tower -- and his story is only told to the outside world thanks to an unlikely encounter with a fellow prisoner.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
