"We notice with warm welcome a new and very handsome illustrated
edition of the original 'Arabian Nights Entertainment,' the 'real
Simon pure,' and never have we seen the fascinating companion of our
youth more 'daintily dight.' Type and paper are both of the finest
quality, while M. Lalauze's graceful and delicate etchings lend
an additional charm to the text. 'The Thousand and One Nights of
Schéhérézade' occupy four goodly volumes, and uniform with them is
Beckford's 'Vathek' and Dr. Johnson's 'Rasselas' in one volume."

TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE
Original printed spelling and punctuation variations are mostly
retained. This was a profusely illustrated book, but none had
captions or titles, and are therefore not indicated herein. The html
and mobile editions retain most of the illustrations. Small caps
and bolded text have been converted to capital letters. Italics are
indicated /like this/. The carat symbol indicates that the following
phrase or character is superscript, as in "M^{me.}".
Page 104: "villanously" changed to "villainously".
