Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"The History of Don Quixote, Volume 2, Part 34" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a section of a novel originally published in two parts in 1605 and 1615. This segment continues the adventures of Alonso Quijano, a hidalgo who loses his sanity from reading chivalric romances and reinvents himself as the knight-errant Don Quixote. Accompanied by his earthy squire Sancho Panza, he journeys through Spain pursuing a knightly quest based on illusion rather than reality, creating chaos and comedy wherever he goes.
