"Captain Buzurg Ibn Shahriyar, a shipmaster from the Persian province of Khuzistan, compiled this collection of sailor's tales between 900 and 953. In the spirit of Sinbad and The Thousand and One Nights; their inspiration was drawn from the 10th century Persian trading world which reached as far as China. These are salty tales of adventures and escapades, extraordinary profits and utter destitution and threaded throughout is the world of myth and imagination, where wondrous animals and miraculous happenings abound. This new translation captures all the charm and spontaneity of the original text. Dr. Freeman-Grenville has supplied an informative introduction, gazetteer, and bibliography" (Jacket). This appears to be rare in commerce.
