Persian Tales Kermani Tales Illustrated by Hilda Roberts (Volume I) is a wonderful book and the first of two volumes of old Persian tales originating from the province Kerman, Iran. It consists of 30 tales which are beautifully illustrated with black and white drawings and many coloured plates by Hilda Roberts. David Lockhart Robertson Lorimer was a British Iranist, military and intelligence officer. Lorimer was primarily a military officer rather than a linguist. He was often assigned to collect information on significant people, roads, strategic sites, and do other intelligence-gathering functions. Lorimer was primarily a military officer rather than a linguist. He was often assigned to collect information on significant people, roads, strategic sites, and do other intelligence-gathering functions. At the same time, Lorimer had a keen interest in the dialect and folklore of the region. He used to collect his material on dialects from elderly informants and would spend the evenings working with them. He collaborated with his wife, who helped make several typewritten drafts of the materials. Only part of this dialectal material found its way into print during Lorimer's lifetime. Pook Press celebrates the great 'Golden Age of Illustration' in children's literature a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children's stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors.
