Set during the medieval Crusades and intended for adults as well as children, this humorous 1892 medieval fantasy/fairy-tale was variously described by the author as a “likely story” and “a romance.” Subtitled “His Rise, His Voracity, and His Downfall” in other editions, it baffled some reviewers but amused many others.
