Award-winning author, Richard Fidler, will be in conversation with Alex Sloan on Richard’s new book, The Book of Roads & Kingdoms, the story of the medieval wanderers who travelled out to the edges of the known world during Islam's fabled Golden Age-an era when the caliphs of Baghdad presided over a dominion greater than the Roman Empire at its peak, stretching from North Africa to India. An empire that was the largest the world had ever seen.
