Gale Eaton claims that not all, of Marco Polo's voyages, may be fraudulent as a result of revisions made by copyists and translators. Eaton's point of view is one with which I agree. Eaton reported that while imprisoned in Genoa, Polo recounted his experiences with another individual, according to Eaton. Polo's stories were going to be a best-seller, thanks to the efforts of a fellow prisoner. Someone interested in gaining popularity would embellish events or leave out specific aspects to ensure that the book was marketable and that people would continue to buy and read it. During this period, there was a race to discover new things as well as a race to accumulate wealth. Copiers would want to add decorations to the mix to keep the frenzy going.
