Ser Marco Polo : Notes and Addenda to Sir Henry Yule's Edition, Containing the Results of Recent Research and Discovery (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Ser Marco Polo: Notes and Addenda to Sir Henry Yule's Edition, Containing the Results of Recent Research and Discovery

There is no need of a long Preface to this small book. When the third edition of the Book of Ser Marco Polo was published in 1903, criticism was lenient to the Editor of yule's grand work, and it was highly satisfactory to me that such competent judges as Sir Aurel stein and Sven hedin gave their approval to the remarks I made on the itineraries followed in Central Asia by the celebrated Venetian Traveller.
