The many adventures of a nineteenth-century Persian rogue, none of which involve honest labor.

'The Adventures of Hajji Baba of Ispahan' is a classic adventure tale by James Morier. The story follows Hajji Baba, a Persian barber who sets out to seek his fortune. Along the way, he meets Princess Fawzia, who has escaped from her palace disguised as a boy. Mistakenly believing Hajji to be her escort, Fawzia accompanies him on his journey. They encounter various obstacles, including attacks from guards and a band of fierce Turcoman women. Along the way, Hajji falls for the beautiful Ayesha, adding a romantic subplot to the tale.
