About this ebook

Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by Martín Rico, Mariano Barbasán Lagueruela and Joaquín Sorolla. The son of a Spanish nobleman is sent out with a sword, a mandolin and his father's blessing to make his fortune in the wars, and acquires a servant, a magician, a castle in Shadow Valley and a wedding that must be arranged around the Inquisition. Dunsany invented his own pantheon in The Gods of Pegāna and wrote much of his work with a quill; this 1922 romance is his funniest, and the Golden Age it parodies is one he half believed in. Sixty plates of Spanish painting by Mariano Barbasán Lagueruela and Martín Rico, among others, carry the inns, carnivals and village streets of the country Rodriguez rides through.
