Synopsis

Excerpt from In Gold and Silver And I said, "By the love I bear you, visions of beauty, come before me and play me magnificent shows!" - Leigh Hunt, A Sight of the Gods. I fear, O Arab! that thou wilt not reach the Caban, for the road that thou art taking leads to Turkistan, or the region of infidels. - Saadi, The Rose Garden of Gulistan. First heard of the rug while sojourning with several friends in Algiers, through a Persian dellal, one of the numerous class of venders who pass from town to town with their pack of. stores. Often the stores, which usually consist of so-called curios, are next to worthless; and again, among them there may be many articles of rare beauty and value. The itinerant merchant is a close buyer, shrewd, cunning, and an excellent judge of human nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
