by Miguel de Cervantes,Christy Webster ( Abridged by)
Don Quixote is a knight-errant determined to keep the spirit of chivalry alive in 17th-century Spain. Accompanied by his sidekick, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote conjures up a love interest, meddles with other people's lives, and fights with "evil giants" that are in fact just windmills. How much of Don Quixote's adventures are real? Has he lost his mind . . . or is he the only lucid one in an excessively cynical world?
Don Quixote
Miguel de Cervantes (circa 1547-1616) was a Spanish author. He spent many decades as a poor man, moving from job to job, until publishing Don Quixote de la Mancha in 1605. The book quickly became a success, and he published part two of the story in 1615, less than a year before his death.
