| Summary |
In 1671, Ambrosio Bembo, a young nobleman, decided to broaden his knowledge of the world through travel. He undertook a remarkable, occasionally hazardous, four-year voyage to Syria, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and the Portuguese colonies of western India. His journal opens a perspective on the Near East and India at a time when few Europeans traveled to these lands. |
