Riassunto:

For the first time, this volume establishes an accurate account of the travels and adventures of Pero Tafur, beginning in 1436. Tafur set out from his native Spain to voyage to Jerusalem. His journey lasted for three years, in which he stopped twice at Cyprus. Hence Tafur's accounts of his time in Cyprus provide reliable historical evidence of the island in the 15th century.
