Print on Demand. At the twilight years of his life, Sir John Falstaff, infamous for his roguish antics in Shakespeare's historical plays, reflects on his past. In this captivating glimpse into one of literature's most beloved characters, we witness Falstaff's confrontation with ghosts of the past: his unrequited love for Dame Sylvia Vernon, his rivalry with Hotspur Percy, and the camaraderie shared with the young Prince Hal. Through these encounters, Falstaff reckons with his mistakes, lost opportunities, and the passage of time. The author evokes the rich tapestry of medieval England, where chivalry and treachery intertwine, providing a backdrop to Falstaff's musings on love, honor, and the complexities of human nature. This introspective journey offers a profound exploration of a timeless literary icon, shedding light on the universal human experiences of regret, redemption, and the enduring power of love.

Paperback. James Branch Cabell (1879-1958) was an American author of fantasy fiction and belles lettres. He worked from 1898 to 1900 as a newpaper reporter in New York City, but returned to Richmond in 1901, where he worked several months on the staff of the Richmond News. In 1902, seven of his first stories appeared in national magazines and over the next decade he wrote many short stories and articles, contributing to nationally published magazines including Harper's Monthly Magazine and The Saturday Evening Post, as well as carrying out extensive research on his family's genealogy. In the early 1920s he became the leader of a group of writers known as "The James Branch Cabell School", which included such figures as H. L. Mencken, Carl Van Vechten and Elinor Wylie.
