Title: Fairer-than-a-Fairy Title Record # 946012
Author: Charlotte Rose Caumont de la Force (in error)
Date: 1894-00-00
Variant Title of: Le prince Arc-en-ciel [French] (1718) (by Jean de Mailly) [may list more publications, awards, reviews, votes and covers]
Type: SHORTFICTION
Length: short story
Webpages: Wikipedia-EN
Language: English
Note: Originally published in French as Le Prince Arc-en-ciel in Nouveau contes de fées (1718 per Wikipedia entry for story). An English translation was published in 1894 as "Fairer-Than-A-Fairy" by Andrew Lang in The Yellow Fairy Book. The story in The Book of Fairies by Michael Hague is the Lang version, but is credited to Charlotte-Rose Caumont de la Force by mistake. Both tales concern a princess named Fairer-than-a-Fairy & as Lang did not credit any author & titled the story the same as Mlle. de la Force's, a mix-up is understandable.
