The Riddle and the Knight: In Search of Sir John Mandeville
3 journalers for this copy...
History and travel - did Sir John Mandeville really take the voyage, did he even leave England at all, was his book about his travels ally fiction? Giles Milton takes a journey in search of the truth ...
My partner's review: It was very good, but somehow the focus slipped at some point. Enjoyable and readable, but perhaps didn't nail it?

Picked up at the April meet in York. It seemed to be a bit unloved, so I took pity on it; the blurb sounds fascinating but I've read the previous review and am prepared for it not quite to live up to the reputation. Still, time will tell!
