At the time of Marco Polo's return to his home city of Venice, Venice and Genoa were at war. He was caught by the Genoese, probably in a battle, but the details are unknown. Tradition has it that he was captured at the Battle of Curzola, in 1298. He was released in August of 1299
After Marco returned from Asia, Venice was at war with Genoa. Marco joined the fight, and was injured and captured as a prisoner of war. He then spent two years in jail, where he dictated his memories and produced his book with a fellow prisoner.
