The legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table is one of the most enduring in world literature. Its scenes of love, war, religion, treachery and family loyalty are timeless as are the reputations of its major characters Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere and Lancelot. Malory's story of noble knights, colourful tournaments and fateful love is set in a courtly society which although outwardly secure is in reality torn by dissent and ultimately treachery. Originally published in 1485, the book is here presented in modern spelling and accompanied by an Introduction and helpful Glossary. Amazing value, 912 page paperback with good-sized print.
