King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table

Retold out of the old romances, this collection of Arthurian tales endeavors to make each adventure–“The Quest for the Round Table, ” “The First Quest of Sir Lancelot, ” “How the Holy Grail Came to Camelot, ” and so forth–part of a fixed pattern that effectively presents the whole story, as it does in Le Morte D’Arthur, but in a way less intimidating to young readers.
