Bag om Don Coyote

Don Coyote is a novel written by Whitman Chambers, first published in 1949. The book is a satirical take on the classic Spanish novel, Don Quixote, by Miguel de Cervantes. The protagonist, Don Coyote, is a wealthy American who becomes obsessed with the romantic ideals of chivalry and decides to become a knight-errant. He sets out on a series of comical adventures, accompanied by his loyal squire, Sancho, who is actually a Mexican gardener.

The novel is a humorous commentary on American culture and the absurdities of modern life.
