A great example of a bad Kindle book...even for free.
25. April 2009
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Let me start by saying "My bad!" if you came here from my review of the Kindle 2: Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device (Latest Generation).
When I bought my Kindle I was excited to instantly download two free books to start playing with it and I mentioned these in my review. I never opened this one...until now.
Mea culpa.
This is a great example of a bad Kindle book! Like all the free books, it has no linked Table of Contents. But the worst part is that Marco Polo is an incredibly complex tale filled with footnotes, editor's comments, endnotes and foreign languages accumulated over the last 600 years. That makes it impossible to enjoy (and comprehend) in the Kindle format.
I wanted to see this version because I'm now reading an incredibly good new print edition The Travels of Marco Polo: Edited by Peter Harris (Everyman's Library (Cloth)) and wanted to compare.
No comparison. Buy the print edition. You'll love it!

This book is a mess
26. April 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
When I looked at the previous and only one star review, I thought, man, it *can't* be this bad. Well, it is.
I can handle no table of contents or internal formatting, but this book truly is a disaster. The first 10% of the book is a mess of confusing forewards and notes about Henry Yule and his family. You can't really make out when this book begins and is just a disaster. I got 20% of the way in before I gave up and deleted the book off my Kindle, so I can try to find a properly formatted version, whatever the cost.
Still, I want to read about Marco Polo's travels in my Kindle, and will have to look elsewhere. It's a shame - such a great story needs better than a bad ebook.

the long trail
25. Dezember 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a very active written book without any fancy trims it stays on track as to the travel and conquest goals and you imagine the country obstacles around the south of France and North Italy then just as it is today without the highways and bridges to help us make the journey over the Alps ... great for history enthusiastic

Some things indeed there be therein which he beheld not; but these he heard from men of credit and veracity. And we shall set down things seen as seen, and things heard as heard only, so that no jot of falsehood may mar the truth of our Book, and that all who shall read it or hear it read may put full faith in the truth of all its contents.
