The Book of Romance

The Book of Romance, edited by Andrew Lang and published in the early 20th century, is a collection of Arthurian and medieval romances featuring legendary figures such as King Arthur, Guinevere, and Merlin. The anthology includes classic tales that explore themes of chivalry, adventure, and love, while Lang's preface reflects on the nature of romances as grown-up fairy tales. Illustrated by H. J. Ford, this collection serves as a foundational exploration of heroism and moral lessons within the interconnected stories of the Arthurian legend.
