"A picaresque romance by James Morier (1780-1849), dealing with life in Persia. The hero is a sort of Persian Gil Bals whose roguery takes him into all spheres of Persian society. In a satiric sequel, Hajji Baba in England (1828), he visits England as a government official, seeing familiar customs with a foreign eye." - - Benet's Reader's Encyclopedia - Fourth Edition
