THE SEVEN VOYAGES OF SINBAD THE SAILOR

Sindbad has been one of the most popular of the Tales from the Arabian Nights since it was first translated from French into English by W. Edward Lane around 1840. This translation was used but edited to modernize the text and eliminate any words or expressions the modern reader may find offensive. It is suitable for family reading, and although there are monsters, they are nicely depicted and not too scary. The illustrations for this edition were published between 1800 and 1950 by the most talented artists of the Victorian and Golden ages of illustration, including: Edmund Dulac, Gustav Doré, René Bull, Eric Pape, Maxfield Parrish, William Harvey, JB Clark, VF Sterrett, William Strang, Helen Stratton, Milo Winter, JC Pinwell, HJ Ford, JD Batten, Thomas Dalziel, WH Robinson, Louis Rhead and Arthur Rackham. A two page bibliography lists, in chronological order, all of the various editions used for this Arabian Nights series. The reader can easily locate the date, artists and publisher for further research. Many of these early editions are available online and are included in the Public Domain.
