- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

For Ibn Batuttah of Tangier, being medieval didn`t mean sitting at home waiting for renaissances, enlightenments & easy Jet. It meant travelling the known world to its limits. Seven centuries on, Tim Mackintosh-Smith`s passionate pursuit of the fourteenth-century traveller takes him to landfalls in remote tropical islands, torrid Indian Ocean ports & dusty towns on the shores of the Saharan s&-sea. His zigzag itinerary across time & space leads from Zanzibar to the Alhambra (via the Maldives, Sri Lanka, China, Mauritania & Guinea) & to a climactic conclusion to his quest for the man he calls `IB`
- a man who out-travelled Marco Polo by a factor of three, who spent his days with saints & sultans & his nights with an intercontinental string of slave-concubines. Tim`s journey is a search for survivals from IB`s world
- material, human, spiritual, edible
- however, when your fellow traveller has a 700-year head start, familiar notions don`t always work.
