Reading Notes: The Voyages of Sindbad Part A

Reading Notes: The Voyages of Sindbad

Sindbad is a great story teller. Getting a first person perspective of his many adventures gives it a more personal view. He always seems to get away from every predicament and wealthier than he was going into each adventure.

The great thing about these tales is that they could be told in any time and any type of religion, not necessarily the same as the source. Sinbad could also be a woman, family or just group of friends searching for wealth.
