In his Book of Marvels and Travels, Sir John Mandeville describes a journey from Europe to Jerusalem and on into Asia, and the many wonderful and monstrous peoples and practices in the East. Written in the fourteenth century, the Book is a captivating blend of fact and fantasy, an extraordinary travel narrative that offers some revealing and unexpected attitudes towards other races and religions. It was immensely popular, and numbered among its readers Chaucer, Columbus, and Thomas More. Here Mandeville tells us about the Sultan in Cairo, the Great Khan in China, and the mythical Christian prince Prester John. There are giants and pygmies, cannibals and Amazons, headless humans and people with a single foot so huge it can shield them from the sun. Forceful and opinionated, the narrator is by turns learned, playful, and moralizing, with an endless curiosity about different cultures. Anthony Bale provides a lively new translation along with an introduction that considers questions of authorship and origins, the early travel narrative, Crusading and religious difference, fantasy and the European Age of Discovery, and Mandeville's pervasive popularity and influence. The book includes helpful notes on historical context that provide insights into medieval culture and attitudes. There are also three maps, an index of places and a general index, and a note on medieval measurements.

Her favorite
Style: Tipsy Rosé
Our weimaraner Gracie loves her wine glass. Whenever it's empty she drops it in front of us to have it refilled. It's very durable and cute, it's easy to fill plus she has no trouble carrying it around. We'll be getting another so she doesn't have to continue to hide it from our other girl. It's quite obviously her favorite.

Good for smaller dogs too
Style: Tipsy Rosé
This dog toy states it's for large dogs (50+ lbs) but I bought it for my 12 lbs dog anyway, and Im glad I did because she loves it. Keeps her entertained. So much better than just handing her treats. When I hear it rolling across the floor I know she's busy and I dont need to worry about what she's up to. The hole is a good size for treats to fit in but she still has to work to get them out.
