Part Two Of Two PartsDON QUIXOTE -- the world's first novel and by far the best-known book in Spanish literature -- was originally intended by Cervantes as a skit on traditional popular ballads, yet he also parodied the romance of chivalry.By happy coincidence he produced one of the most entertaining adventure stories of all time and, in Don Quixote and his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, two of the greatest characters in fiction.The first part of DON QUIXOTE was published in 1604 and brought Cervantes immediate popularity. It wasn't until 1614 that the tale was completed. By 1615, when he died, old, a soldier, a gentleman and poor, his book was already famous in both French and English. Time has only enhanced his and the book's reputation. Digital Content>E-books>Fiction>Fiction>Fiction, ReadHowYouWant Digital >16<

Obsessed with tales of gallant knights, Don Quixote, a middle-aged man from La Mancha, decides to take his own adventure. Donning rusty armor and riding upon an old horse, he sets off to change the world and save his invented damsel in distress in the name of chivalry. Unfortunately, Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza are met with a host of ill-intentioned characters, and the pair often find themselves the butt of a joke rather than chivalrous saviors. This renowned tragic comedy, written by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, was first published in Spain in two parts in 1605 and 1615. This is an unabridged version of John Ormsby's English translation from 1885. Digital Content>E-books>Fiction>Fiction>Fiction, ReadHowYouWant Digital >16<
