Eric Newby¿s enthusiasm for his subject shines through in his anthology. The tales collected in this treasure-trove of the bizarre, the touching, the profound and the farcical have a scope and range from Herodotus to Wilfred Thesiger, from Christopher Columbus to Paul Theroux, from Nick Danziger to Marco Polo. There is a clear aim with this book to replicate the critical and commercial success of his 1985 book Traveller¿s Tales, which it may well achieve.
