Together, they get away and their famous adventures begin. Don Quixote takes a small inn for a castle, and he believes large windmills to be giants and thus attacks. He attacks a flock of sheep, believing it to be an army, finds a barber basin which he believes to be a helmet.... This book is rewritten from "Don Quixote of La Mancha" by Miguel de Cervantes. This novel is his masterpiece and is considered to represent the birth of modern literature in the 20th century.
