Arthurian Miscellany

A treasure house of the most enduring legends in English literature, gathered in one indispensable volume. Here are the stories that shaped a nation's imagination: the boy who pulls the sword from the stone, the wizard who watches over a kingdom's fate, the knights who swear loyalty to a round table where no seat holds privilege. The collection moves through the great quests - the search for the Holy Grail, pure and impossible; the doomed love between Lancelot and Guinevere; the final battle at Camlann where legend meets its end. These are not retellings but the original voices: Malory's *Le Morte d'Arthur*, Tennyson's elegiac poems, medieval romances that predate printing. The legend unfolds across centuries in prose and verse, each author adding their own layer to the myth. For anyone who has ever wondered where the man called Arthur came from, why the Grail matters, or what it means to seek something you may never find, this is the source.
