.The Adventures of Ibn Battuta: A Muslim Traveler of the Fourteenth Century City Travel Guides > Books > Africa by: Ross E. Dunn December 09, 2004 So, what should we know about the Marco Polo of Tangier? The first thing is that the Marco Polo comparison, while of obvious utility, is really not a good one. The Adventures of Ibn Battuta is about Ibn Battuta and his world, and I think the story stands better on its own. Ross Dunn, the author, apparently thinks the same way, since the comparison is mentioned at the very beginning, but seldom after that. Battuta's travels through the world were done in a way only someone of his background could do them. So what did he do? Ibn Battuta was a twenty one year old scholar of probably modest talent who set out to perform the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and managed to not return home for twenty-four years. He apparently liked to travel, and ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on The Adventures of Ibn Battuta: A Muslim Traveler of the Fourteenth Century |

.My Heart is Africa: A Flying Adventure City Travel Guides > Books > Africa by: Scott Griffin February 02, 2006 Although I cannot deny the author is brave and adventurous, it is irritating to note that his facts are frequently mistaken, his romanticism cloying and his understanding of politics is oversimplified. He is obviously a skilled pilot and I recommend the book for other flying enthusiasts. >>See More Reviews & Details on My Heart is Africa: A Flying Adventure |

.One Hundred Years of Darkness City Travel Guides > Books > Africa by: Marcus Bleasdale August 30, 2002 Fifth longest river in the world and second only to the Nile on the African continent, the Congo river is 2720 miles long. It is also sub-Saharan Africa's greatest thoroughfare: a living roadway up which, even at the driest times of the year, barges in excess of 1000 tons are able to penetrate more than 650 miles. But the heart of darkness referred to in the title of Conrad's famous story didn't originate in the unexplored far reaches of the river. Instead it slid against the flow towards the interior during the vast region's exploitation by nineteenth century colonialists. Conrad witnessed this rape first hand in 1890, was horrified by it, and Heart of Darkness was the parable by which he described its effect upon him. One hundred years on from ...
