The legends of King Arthur the most revered hero of British Mythology have been retold many times, but Roger Lancelyn Greens version has become a classic since its first publication in 1953. Using as his sources not only Malorys MORTE DARTHUR but other chronicles, poems and romances, he has made each adventure of Arthurs knights part of an overall pattern the struggle of Arthurs kingdom, the realm of Logress, the model of chivalry and right, against the barbarism and evil that surrounded and at length engulfed it. So here are the stories of the sword in the stone, of the Green Knight, of the fatal love between Launcelot and Guinevere, of the quest for the Holy Grail, and of the final departing of Arthur to the Vale of Avalon. The illustrations are taken from an edition of MORTE DARTHUR published in 1893 with which Aubrey Beardsley first made a name for himself at the age of twenty.
