Excerpt from World's Great Classics
The growing interest in Oriental literature has led me to think that a reprint of my father's translation of the Shah N ameh would be acceptable to the public. As one of the Chandos Classics it will be brought in a cheap form before a class of readers who would otherwise have no opportunity of becoming acquainted with the Iliad of the East.
