It is a collection of short stories written by the master fantasist Lord Dunsany. (Yes, he was actually of Irish nobility.) Not only does he have an amazing life story, but his works are some of the best pieces of fantasy I have ever read. His novel, "The King of Elflands Daughter" is an unparalleled masterpiece in its beautiful imagery ...
