TARGET: Ibn Buttuta

["Garry Jantzen (Marshfield)" <GarryJ@COOS-BAY.K12.OR.US>]

Hi

Has anyone got in their collection an 'accessible' (for high school)
translation, abstraction, etc. of the 1000 page, 4 volume writings of Ibn
Buttuta, the great traveler? This is the 14th Arab who traveled over 75,000
miles (shortly after Marco Polo died). I've found some web pages as well as
publications, but I have no idea how suitable they'd be for high school.
They seem, from the titles and descriptions, pretty scholarly.
