The Book of Roads & Kingdoms brings to life a dazzling culture of Baghdad during Islam’s Golden Age.

Australian writer and broadcaster Richard Fidler recounts how medieval Persian and Arab wanderers ventured by camel, horse and boat into the unknown, bringing back tales of wonder, horror and delight.

The host of ABC’s Conversations speaks with broadcaster Jack Tame.

Supported by Platinum Bold Patrons Joséphine & Ross Green.
