King Arthur, the legendary ruler of Britain, has fascinated generations of readers who enjoy the romance of his idylls in the ideal kingdom of Camelot, and his adventures with the Knights of the Round Table. The Story of King Arthur and His Knights brings together two volumes of Howard Pyle's retellings of classic Arthurian legends, originally published in 1903 and 1905 and featuring more than 100 of his classic illustrations.

 

In The Story of King Arthur and His Knights, young Arthur is ignorant of his noble heritage when he pulls an enchanted sword out of an anvil--a feat no other man can manage and that confirms Arthur's birthright as King of Britain. Adventures that follow include Arthur's tutelage under the wizard Merlin; his acquisition of the magic sword Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake; his wooing and wedding of the Lady Guinevere; and his selection of the most valorous knights in his kingdom to serve as his Knights of the Round Table.

 

The Story of the Champions of the Round Table continues the adventures in Camelot with accounts of the exploits of Sir Launcelot, Sir Tristram, and Sir Percival.
