The History of Don Quixote, Volume 1, Complete by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

"The History of Don Quixote, Volume 1, Complete" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a Spanish novel published in 1605. A minor nobleman loses his sanity from reading too many chivalric romances and decides to become a knight-errant. Renaming himself Don Quixote, he recruits a simple farmer, Sancho Panza, as his squire. Together they embark on adventures where Don Quixote mistakes windmills for giants and inns for castles, unable to see the world as it truly is. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
