Tales of the Arabian Nights

In this superbly illustrated volume you will find dozens of wonderful stories of genies and jinns (those fantastic spirits that, according to Muslim folklore, inhabit the earth in various forms and exercise supernatural power), of magic carpets, Caliph Harun Al-Rashid, and the beautiful Scheherazade. There are classics such as 'Sinbad the Sailor', 'Aladdin' and 'The Seven Viziers', traditional stories that have given boundless pleasure down through the ages, which you too can now experience.

The wondrous illustrations are by the master Victorian artist engraver Thomas Dalziel, whose unique talent is displayed at its very best here.

This book to treasure is a rich mine of adventure to fire the imagination, a treasury of one thousand and one nights that you will want to return to again and again.
