description: This Elibron Classics book is a reprint of a 1909 edition by Cassell and Company, Ltd., London, Toronto, Melbourne, New York. In this breezy and impudent satire, Lemuel Gulliver embarks on a series of journeys to distant lands, encountering entire societies oflittle people, giants, and talking horses. Making astonishing use of this premise, Swift manages to write a story whose fantastical elements delight children, yet whose ironic depictions of English life are fascinating to the most learned and intelligent adults.
