Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Regions of the World Jonathan Swift

There is a meaning and a moral in the stories of the Voyages to Lilliput and Brobdingnag which is entirely apart from the political satire they are intended to convey, a meaning and a moral which the youngest child who can read it will not fail to seize. Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Regions of the World (1900) edited by Thomas M. Balliet contains the Voyages to Lilliput and Brobdingnag. It is both a satire on human nature and a parody of the "travellers' tales" literary sub-genre. Swift's masterpiece is his most celebrated work and one of the indisputable classics of the English language. Contains over 60 beautiful illustrations.
