The Adventures of Hajji Baba of Ispahan in England is an 1828 novel by the British traveller and writer James Justinian Morier. It is a sequel to his 1824 novel The Adventures of Hajji Baba of Ispahan. It followed despite protests from the Persian ambassador to London about the original.[1] Morier presented it as an satire on Western Civilisation.[2]
Along with the original novel it provided part of the inspiration for the 1954 American film The Adventures of Hajji Baba directed by Don Weis and starring John Derek, Elaine Stewart and Amanda Blake.
