Tales from King Arthur; Edited By Andrew Lang

Paperback

Condition: New

In this selection of tales by the master folklorist Andrew Lang, the reader is taken into the romantic world of the gallant 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 and 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 pre-recorded history, and they have as much appeal today as they did in the age of the troubadours.

Tales include:

The Drawing of the Sword
The Questing Beast
The Sword Excalibur
The Story of Sir Balin
How the Round Table Began
The Passing of Merlin
How Morgan le Fay Tried to Kill King Arthur
What Beaumains Asked of the King
The Quest of the Holy Grail
The Fight for the Queen
The Fair Maid of Astolat
Lancelot and Guenevere
The End of It All
