The Story of King Arthur and His Knights

The legend-laden stories of the immortal King Arthur and his chivalrous knights of the Round Table. In this classic collection, Howard Pyle brings to life-with his storytelling flair and vivid illustrations-the heroic deeds, epic quests, and chivalric adventures of Arthurian legend.

This book tells of the story of the ascent of King Arthur to the throne, his establishment of the Round Table, and the exploits of his most bold knights: Sir Lancelot, Sir Galahad, and Sir Percival. Pyle weaves exciting stories with long, descriptive illustrations into this compilation of stories to distill the very essence of Arthurian tales, including such themes as honor, courage, and the quest for the Holy GraiI.

It is enchanting and wonderfully illustrated; the perfect introduction to Camelot's legends, as well as a treasured classic for readers of any age who relish both historical insight and imaginative adventure.
