  "Great historical fiction" by robertamatz (see profile) 09/21/12

The book follows a young man from being orphaned in England, to traveling with a barber to going to Turkey, masquerading as a Jew, to study medicine in the year 1000. A great adventure and fascinating history of medicine. Good love interest too
