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.’
