Notes

  • Available online at Internet Archive and at HathiTrust Digital Library
  • Presented as the story told on the last of the 1001 nights. Housman says in the introduction (1st ed., p1-4) that it is "according to some versions, the last of all", and such placement fits his evident purpose. See the Synopsis.   This placement does not match Burton's translation (10 vols. + 6 vols of "Supplemental Nights").

1st ed.; 7th annual gift book from Dulac and Hodder & Stoughton (Housman also wrote the first) --Wikipedia and Encyclopedia of Fantasy
