"In this entirely new version of the Tales of a Thousand and One Nights,' the chief object of the translator has been to render these enchanting fictions as interesting to persons of mature age and education as

they have hitherto been to the young; and to do this

without divesting them of those attractions which have chiefly recommended them to the latter. The version which has so long amused us, not made immediately from the original Arabic, but through the medium of a French translation, is extremely loose, and abounds with such errors as greatly detract from the most valuable quality of the work, which is that of presenting a series of most faithful and minutely detailed pictures of the

manners and customs of the Arabs.

"The engravings considerably assist to explain the text and the notes; and to ensure their accuracy with

respect to costume, architecture, and scenery, the translator supplied the artist with dresses and other requisite materials.

"This is the first time the Arabian Nights have ever been faithfully rendered into any European language. Mr. Lane's style is simple, nervous, and flexible, admirably suited to his subject, and to the shifting and variable demands of the original. But the most important part of this new edition is the notes. Mr. Lane's residence in Egypt has enabled him to acquire so complete a knowledge of the manners and customs of the Egyptian Arabs, that he has succeeded in giving us, in a series of illustrative notes appended to the several chapters, a faithful, and, as it were, ▲ LIVING PICTURE OF THE EAST. Indeed, we know of no traveller or writer who has let us so fully into the privacy of domestic life among the Arabs; his notes on the baths, on dress and furniture, on the meals and manner of eating, on hunting and hawking, are invaluable; his historical illustrations are also numerous and well selected; in fact, THE BOOK IS THE MOST COMPLETE MANUAL OF EASTERN MANNERS EVER PUBLISHED. Mr. Lane has availed himself of numerous manuscripts brought from Egypt, to perfect many tales which had been either garbled or abridged by former translations. THESR
