The parasol is one of eight auspicious symbols of Buddhism. Its
function is to cast a shadow, symbolizing protection from the
heat, suffering, and desire of spiritually harmful forces.

Order the Book

"It was the best-documented journey of its time, inspiring the imaginations and ambitions of countless adventurers, including Christopher Columbus. Now we, too, can follow in the footsteps of Marco Polo, with guides as vividly exciting and engaging as Marco himself. With both their film and this book Denis and Francis have recreated what Joseph Campbell would have applauded as 'The Hero's Journey.' Come take it yourself and you'll never turn back."
