Finn, your Starvard guide

Merhaba, benim adım Finn ve bu kitabı anlamana yardım edeceğim.

İşte, 10 yaşındaymışsın gibi anlatılmış hâli:

Uzun zaman önce bir İngiliz şövalye, 1322 yılında evden ayrıldığını ve yıllarca Kutsal Topraklar, Mısır, Hindistan ve uzak Çin boyunca yolculuk yaptığını söyledi ve bu onun kitabıdır. Kutsal yerleri, büyük hanları, Rahip Johnun ülkesinin harikalarını ve dünyanın ucundaki yaratıkları anlatır. Buradaki metin, 1900 tarihli Macmillan baskısıdır. Onu orta çağ okurlarının yaptığı gibi, hayretle okuyun ve İngilizcedeki en eski gezi kitaplarından birinin tadını çıkarın.
