Synopsis
Presents a selection of stories told by a young girl on her wedding night to a prince who has sworn to kill any girl who marries him., The Arabian Nights is your magic carpet ride to exotic lands full of wonders and marvels. First collected nearly a thousand years ago, these folktales are presented as stories that crafty Scheherazade tells her husband, King Shahryar, over a thousand-and-one consecutive nights, to pique his interest for the next evening's entertainment and thereby save her life. Among them are some of the best-known legends of eastern storytelling, including the 'Sinbad the Sailor', 'Aladdin and His Magic Lamp' and 'Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves'. This collection features more than twenty stories, in the classic translation of Sir Richard Burton, published between 1884 and 1886, and full-colour illustrations by Renata Fucikova and Jindra Capek. The Arabian Nights is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an exquisitely designed bonded-leather binding, with distinctive gilt edging and a silk-ribbon bookmark. Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for every home library.

    Extremely charming, well designed and executed animal storyteller pieces. Seller took great care to pack them very carefully given their considerable fragility. Wonderfully helpful seller who communicated generously at every stage. I wish all sellers were so accommodating and sensitive to the pieces they sell! Shipped promptly, too. I can highly recommend this seller and would be glad to work with him again. All good! Many thanks!

    Purchased a replacement figurine (previous arrived damaged from poor packing). This one arrived in perfect condition because the Seller took the time to pack it properly. In the case of fragile figurines, taking the time means a lot of time, and a lot of effort, and a lot of carefully placed protective materials. So if you're thinking of buying something that is fragile from this seller, this buyer had a great experience!

  • Gorgeous Book with Wondrous Stories!

    This book was purchased for a Victorian Christmas mansion display where storybook characters are the theme for my sister's room to decorate. It is a perfect accompaniment to the characters she is hand-making from some of the stories in this book. She also is reading it before using it. The cover is gorgeous. The images inside are beautiful. This is a book for those who enjoy something as aesthetically pleasing as the contents are engaging.
