Determined to right wrongs and win fame, Don Quixote of La Mancha embarks on what he sees as the proper exploits of a knight errant. On his faithful steed, Rocinante, and with his squire, Sancho Panza, he travels the Spanish countryside insearch of adventure. But Don Quixote does not live in the chivalric world of the books he so loves to read. The adventures he embarks on are misadventures.
