Travels with Herodotus

Travels with Herodotus (Polish: Podróże z Herodotem) is a non-fiction book written by the Polish journalist, Ryszard Kapuściński, published in 2004. The book mixes together a collection of Kapuściński's own experiences connected to his work in India and China and philosophical themes with excerpts from the book The Histories by Herodotus which serves not only as a companion in his often long and lonely journeys but also as a guide to the conflicts that waged in current times (such as East vs. West and the debate over whether many European customs originally came from Africa).[1] The book was translated into English by Klara Glowczewska.
