Praise be to Him who hath made the histories of the past an admonition unto the present!
Sir Richard F. Burton's translation of the classic Arabian Nights tales captures the exotic adventure and romance inherent in these stories.
King Shahryar, after discovering his wife's infidelity and killing her for it, begins marrying a maiden every night and killing her the next morning. But one maiden, Scheherazade, thinks of a way to save her own life by telling wondrous tales of magical transformation, genies and wishes, flying carpets and fantastical journeys, terror and passion to entertain and appease the King. Every morning the King decides to let her live one day longer so as to keep hearing the tales she tells.
