In this entertaining and instructive tale, Rasselas, the son of the King of Abyssinia, is cloistered in a beautiful valley, his home until he ascends the throne. Bored, he escapes with his sister and some companions. They travel the world searching for happiness, but eventually realize that while pursuing happiness is a necessary endeavor, obtaining it is something else altogether.
