Reviews

“African Landings makes a valuable contribution to medieval Mediterranean studies by presenting Italian travel diaries and records often unfamiliar to the Anglophone world. Through its analysis of these unique perspectives, the book offers fresh insights into the cultural exchanges that shaped both Eastern and Western histories.” Marina Montesano, University of Messina, Italy
