King Arthur and the Knights

The legends of King Arthur, retold in modern English by Rupert S. Holland (1919) from the work of Thomas Malory. The secret son of King Uther, Arthur is raised by the knight Ector without knowing anything of his birth. At fifteen he draws from a stone the sword that no lord has been able to move, and becomes king. Around the Round Table at Camelot, Lancelot, Gareth, Tristram and Galahad ride out on adventures and in quest of the Grail, before rivalries and betrayals threaten the kingdom. A clear and lively way into the great tales of chivalry.
