James Branch Cabell
James Branch Cabell (1879-1958) was an American writer of escapist and fantasy fiction. Born into a wealthy family in the state of Virginia, Cabell attended the College of William and Mary, where he graduated in 1898 following a brief personal scandal. His first stories began to be published, launching a productive decade in which Cabell’s worked appeared in both Harper’s Monthly Magazine and The Saturday Evening Post. Over the next forty years, Cabell would go on to publish fifty-two books, many of them novels and short-story collections. A friend, colleague, and inspiration for such writers as Ellen Glasgow, H.L. Mencken, Sinclair Lewis, and Theodore Dreiser, James Branch Cabell is remembered as an iconoclastic pioneer of fantasy literature.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5a Chapter in the "Biography of Manuel" and an early Cabell work. I find Cabell more than a little "Precious", as he was a very conscious aristocrat. but if you are looking for fantasy in the "High Line", he was the progenitor of many following artists. i found this volume in a dusty corner of a university library and regard it as not so accessible as the works of E.R.R. Eddison, but all right reading. For completists, this work covers October 1264 to May 1420. It has been reprinted several times.
