Roostum Zaboolee and Soohrab is a historical tale from the Shah Namuh, or Book of Kings, written by the Persian poet Firdousee in 1829. The story follows the legendary hero Roostum and his son Soohrab, who are both skilled warriors. Soohrab, who has never met his father, is sent by his mother to find and challenge Roostum to a battle. Unbeknownst to Soohrab, Roostum is his father and the two engage in a tragic battle, resulting in Soohrab's death. The tale explores themes of identity, family, and the consequences of war. Firdousee's work is considered a masterpiece of Persian literature and has had a significant influence on the culture and history of Iran.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
