Enchanted Castle Fairy Tales from Flowerland-Howard E. Altemus

from Feather · host Ford Madox Ford

The headstrong Princess Ernalie is one day carried off from her kingdom by an eagle. Unable to return home because of impassable terrain, she settles into her new home with the former king and queen of the land, who have been dethroned. She then discovers that a feather from the tail of the eagle who carried her off gives her the power of invisibility. When she gets to know the king and queen's son Treblo, love spurs her on to undertake a voyage to the moon in order to save his life. During this adventure, which she carries out with the help of the feather, she makes the acquaintance of no less than the Man in the Moon, the Fates, and the goddess Diana. But her flight home from the moon lands her back in her original homeland, divided from Treblo by impossibly hostile terrain. Can she find a way to reunite with him? (Summary by Scarbo)

The Four Feathers A. E. W. Mason The Four Feathers is a 1902 adventure novel by British writer A.E.W. Mason that has inspired many films of the same title. The novel tells the story of British officer, Harry Feversham, who resigns his commission in the East Surrey Regiment just prior to Sir Garnet Wolseley's 1882 expedition to Egypt to suppress the rising of Urabi Pasha. He is faced with censure from three of his comrades for cowardice, signified by the delivery of three white feathers to him, from Captain Trench and Lieutenants Castleton and Willoughby, and the loss of the support of his Irish fiancée, Ethne Eustace, who presents him with the fourth feather. His best friend in the regiment, Captain Durrance becomes his rival for Ethne.
