In this selection of tales by the master-folklorist Andrew Lang, the reader is taken into the romantic world of the galliant Knights of the Round Table and their courageous and chivalrous deeds, fair maidens, castles steeped in history, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the tragic love of King Arthur anf Sir Lancelot for Guinevere, and Tristan for Iseult.
The Arthurian legends are the most potent of the thrilling and mist-enshrouded tales of adventure to be passed down from prerecorded history, and they have as much appeal today as they did in the age of the troubadours.
