'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 Guenevere, 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.'
141 pages, written in a fairly small text, split into main chapters:
1. The Drawing of the Sword
2. The Questing Beast
3. The Sword Excalibur
4. The Story of Sir Balin
5. How the Round Table Began
6. The Passing of Merlin
7. How Morgan le Fay Tried to kill King Arthur
8. What Beaumains asked of the King
9. The Quest of the Holy Grail
10. The Fight for the Queen
11. The Fair Maind of Astolat
12. Lancelot and Guenevere
13. The End of it All
Interspersed with 22 charming black and white full page illustrations.

A brief look into life in the age of knights
6 Jun 1999
Format:Paperback
This is a very funny book because it tells you much about the way people live and think long ago. You may find that the people in that era view things in a very different way.
