What Our Customers Say...
Description
Illustrated, Leather Binding
A very scarce work aimed at young children. This particular work is a retelling of story of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes, retold by the author of 'Home Chat', C. L. Mateaux. 'The Ingenious Gentleman Sir Quixote of La Mancha' was a hugely influential work, and one of the most popular work fiction from the canon of Spanish literature. This abridged and adapted version aimed at young children is illustrated throughout with numerous vignettes. The illustrator is unknown. A lovely example of this work of children's literature.
