About

Tales of King Arthur

The story then follows Arthur and his knights—including Gawayne, Launcelot, Gareth, Tristram, and others—through quests, tournaments, enchantments, battles, and encounters with figures such as Merlin, the Lady of the Lake, and Morgan le Fay. The later tales lead toward the fall of the Round Table, the great battle in the West, and Arthur’s legendary end, closing with the idea of the king whose story—and hope of return—never truly dies.

First published in 1910, this edition is derived from the original book with 8 color illustrations. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
