The Travels, by Marco Polo
I've been looking forward to reading Marco Polo's records of his travels for a while. Since he is from Venice, it was an easy choice.
I bought it, fittingly enough, at a bookstore called Libreria Marco Polo. It was the second bookstore I visited with English language books. It was well-stocked, and I could see that they were adding new English titles to their shelves. The other bookstore, Libreria Acqua Alta, had nice ambience (a gondola, ancient books, and so many cats), but its English language literature was lacking.
