The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen (Dodo Press)

Rudolf/Rudolph Erich Raspe (1736-1794) was a German librarian, writer and scientist. He is best known for his collection of tall tales: The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1785), originally a satirical work with political aims. The Baron Munchausen tales were made famous when they were "borrowed", translated into German, and embellished somewhat by G. A. Burger in 1786 - and have been a favourite read of subsequent generations, as well as the basis of several films.
