Paperback quality just enough
Got the paperback edition, and the quality and font is just enough to not return it. Besides, its a reading book so nothing to write on it hence doesn't matter much.

Interesting read
It provides a bird's eye view of the former times, though it does not have details on many subjects.

Really a collector's item
This is better than described by the seller. Golden gilded pages give a classy look. The paper is bright white so reading is enjoyable with dark text. I added a similar colored globe to make it a beautiful artefact

Engrossing tale of history and travel
Page and print quality is not that good. Apart from this the contents of the book absolutely riveting. A must read for history bluffs

Only for the asthetics
Sky blue hardbound, with a Cover over it, Got golden edges and a bookmark binded with it inside. White pages and tiny texts only good for asthetics from outside. Good luck reading from it haha This & the penguin paperback is the best translation available for this book in this price range. There wouldn't be much problem to read with this translation. Tim Mackintosh Smith also did a great job.

イブン・バットゥータの「大旅行記」の抄訳解説つき版です。英語圏では完訳はないようですが、日本には東洋文庫にあります。フランス語だとネットで無料ダウンロードできます。なので、見つけた時にはラッキー!と思ったのですが、そうでもなかったです。ただ、日本語版は文庫といいつつ結構高い上に7冊組なので、ちょっとのぞいてみるには良いかもしれません。

Da ich das Buch noch nicht zu Ende gelesen habe, kann ich vor allem auf das gute Englisch des Autors verweisen, von dem ich einges gelernt habe.
