Excellent Translation
Excellent translation, from the oldest known manuscript of the tales. True to the original, it captures not just the letter, but the spirit of the text. Clearly, Haddawy is a talented writer on his own accord. A very good place to discover Arab culture as well.

One Arabian treasure-trove
This book is a delight for young and old alike. I suggest you buy the hardback edition, because it's a book you will want to keep over the generations.
