One page, 8vo, some spotting but mainly good condition, complete and legible. "I send you a translation of an Arabian Tale written by Al Mohdi, an employé [underlined] of the French govt during the time that Egypt was occupied by the French Army. It has been modified & abridged for some of the details were unfit for European eyes & others would not be understood without lengthened notes.
