Description:

Using both primary and secondary sources (including the accounts of great explorers), the authors attempt to tell the entire history of what is arguably humanity's greatest highway. Traversed by pilgrim and pillager alike, this is the road of Marco Polo, Alexander the Great, Kublai Khan and Attila the Hun--the road connecting east and west and linking the great historic cultures of Eurasia.
