Upon reaching Baghdad-the first traveler to arrive from China-Sauma learned that his pilgrimage could not be fulfilled because of Islamic control of the Holy Land. In Voyager from Xanadu, Morris Rossabi traces Sauma's trans-Eurasian travels against the turbulent era of the Mongol Empire and the last Crusades. His indispensable book provides a unique first-hand Asian perspective on Europe and illuminates a crucial period in the early history of global, diplomatic, and commercial networking.Rabban Sauma and the first journey from China to the WestDiplomatsChinaDiplomatsTravelVoyages and travelsTravel, Medieval13th century.asian travel.baghdad.beijing.china.chinese monk.commercial networking.diplomacy.discussion books.engaging.europe.firsthand perspective.global travels.historical.history.holy land.islamic control.jerusalem.last crusades.medieval period.mongol capital.mongol empire.muslims.nestorian christian.nonfiction account.pilgrimage.rabban sauma.trans eurasian travel.travelogue.western travel.western world.world history.xanadu.DiplomatsDiplomatsTravel.Voyages and travels.Travel, Medieval.909/.2092Rossabi Morrisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut538525DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996248321003316Voyager from Xanadu2406346UNISA
