Full Calf. Condition: Very Good Plus. Rare with hand-colored plates. 8vo. 20.5 by 13 cm. xliv, 368, 432 pp. Fourteen hand-colored engraved plates. The coloring was done with great care and precision. Morell claimed to be merely collecting the tales from the Indian subcontinent (thus he is credited on the title page merely as the… translator from Persian) when in fact he made up the stories himself, inspired by The Arabian Nights, to be sure. The work was first published in 1764, at a time the public was smitten with exotic Orientalia. Rubbing along the joints, and light wear to the cover otherwise.
