James Branch Cabell (1879-1958) wrote belles lettres and fantasy fiction. Most popular in the 1920s, his escapist literature was well regarded by respected authors of his time. He lived by his quote in The Silver Stallion, "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true."

Published in 1909, this collection of ten short stories is set in France of the Middle Ages and ostensibly comes from the pen of Nicolas de Caen, secretary to the Duke of Burgundy. Though Cabell later shoehorned this volume into his Poictesme fantasy series, the stories are really historical romances.
