'Sir John Mandeville, a fourteenth-century English knight about whom very little is known and whose very existence some scholars have doubted, set sail from the land of his birth in 1322. Thirty-four years later, in 1356, he finally returned. During his travels, through Europe, the Near, Middle and Far East and India, he had seen giraffes and crocodiles, fought for the Great Khan and refused an offer of marriage to a sultan's daughter. His account of his adventures was an instant best-seller, second only to the Bible, and, despite that fact that some of it, such as the lambs that grew on trees, is now known to be untrue, it was used as a work of reference: Christopher Columbus had a copy aboard his ship when he first sailed to the Americas.' 286 pages..
