Excerpt from Persian Portraits: A Sketch of Persian History, Literature, and PoliticsFor the Oriental scholar, or for persons well versed in Oriental literature, this book has not been written. A very hasty perusal of it will Show them that it contains nothing new, and may be 'taken as read, ' a form frequently adopted in the case of reports at public meetings. But there are many people in this country who know little, and care less, about Oriental literature generally, and Persian literature particularly. They have not the time or the inclination to turn their attention to literature of the sort, and so remain in complete ignorance of what is really both useful and interesting.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
