The Adventures of Don Quixote de la Mancha is a classic novel written by Miguel de Cervantes in the early 17th century. This particular edition, published in 1880, was translated into English by Charles Jarvis. The story follows the adventures of a man named Alonso Quixano who becomes so enamored with the stories of knights and chivalry that he sets out on his own quest to become a knight himself. He takes on the name Don Quixote and sets out on a series of adventures with his loyal squire, Sancho Panza. Along the way, he encounters various characters and situations that challenge his beliefs about chivalry and honor. The novel is a satirical commentary on the romanticized ideals of chivalry and the importance of reality versus fantasy. Jarvis's translation is considered one of the most faithful and accurate translations of the novel into English.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
