This work pieces together the life history of the myth of Prester John, the Christian potentate of the East, Emperor of Ethiopia.
Robert Silverberg, whose work is well-known to science fiction fans, originally published 'The Realm Of Prester John' in 1972 - the first modern account of the genesis of a great medieval myth which was perpetuated for centuries by European Christians who looked to Asia and Africa for a strong ruler out of the east. This is a new edition of Silverberg's romantic and fabulous tale.
