The Bondage and Travels of Johann Schiltberger is a historical account of the life of Johann Schiltberger, a Bavarian native who lived in the late 14th and early 15th century. This book details his travels throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa during the years 1396 to 1427. The narrative is a first-hand account of Schiltberger's experiences as a captive of the Ottoman Turks during the Battle of Nicopolis in 1396, as well as his subsequent travels throughout the Middle East, India, and China. Schiltberger's account provides valuable insight into the customs, beliefs, and practices of the cultures he encountered, as well as the political and social climate of the time. The book is a fascinating look into the life of a medieval adventurer, and is a must-read for anyone interested in history or travel literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
