The Shahname (Squashed Edition)

The Squashed edition of the great book of Persian Kings - The Shahname by Ferdowsi Tusi. Abridged from the original text to read in an hour or so. Squashed editions are precise abridgements - the original ideas, in their own words, the full beam of the book, the quotable quotes and all the famous lines, but neatly honed down to the length of a readable short story. Like reading the bible without all the begats - Prof. Jim Curtis
