Excerpt from A Royal Enchantress: The Romance of the Last Queen of the Berbers The authorities all agree that Cabina was beautiful, learned in the sciences and the arts, brave in battle, wise as a ruler, and beloved as a woman. The slight changes in the treatment of minor detail and in the foreshortening of the perspective in some places, have, perhaps, not exceeded the liberties that an author may take in permitting imagination to soften and beautify the sterner and harsher outlines of facts.
