The Final Folly of Captain Dancy and Other Pseudo-Historical Fantasies

Set sail on some most improbable seas with Hugo-winner Lawrence Watt-Evans as he explores the universe of stories set in the past -- stories the couldn't possibly have happened, but probably should have. Includes "The Final Folly of Captain Dancy," "Windwagon Smith and the Martians," "My Mother and I Go Shopping," and "One Million Lightbulbs." Bonus features: A new introduction by the author, an essay on how he came to write "Captain Dancy," and, at long last, the revelation we've all been waiting on so long: "What the Parrot Was For."
