Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"The History of Don Quixote, Volume 2, Part 31" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a section of a novel originally published in two parts in 1605 and 1615. This installment continues the adventures of Alonso Quijano, a hidalgo who loses his sanity from reading chivalric romances and becomes the knight-errant Don Quixote. Accompanied by his practical squire Sancho Panza, Don Quixote journeys through Spain, unable to distinguish fantasy from reality as he seeks to revive medieval chivalry in a changing world.
