  • Arabian nights entertainments: consisting of one thousand and one stories told by the Sultaness of the Indies to divert the Sultan from the execution of a bloody vow he had made to marry a lady every day and have her cut off next morning, to avenge himself for the disloyalty of his first sultaness, &c
  • In 2 volumes. Uncredited English translation from the French edition of Antoine Galland.
  • Data from the University of New Brunswick library, which gives the publication date as "1706-1717".
  • Based on OCLC records, the original 1706 edition was reprinted several times, sometimes become longer. This is consistent with the fact that the Galland translation was not completed until 1717, hence it seems likely that later printings of this edition include more of the stories. This is probably the source of the New Brunswick record entry for the publication dates of "1706-1717".
