BROTHERS DALZIEL IN EPIC PROPORTIONS
Soaring from the Middle East to Persia and India, fairytale translator Henry William Dulcken (1832-1894) offered another generation of Europeans a glimpse into the Islamic world as the popular Brothers Dalziel's illustrated edition released in weekly installments throughout 1865. Each are collected in this sizable nineteenth century reprint, perfectly capturing the epic proportions of One Thousand and One Nights.
