Publisher's Synopsis
This classic collection of Arthurian Tales includes both the complete British adventures of King Arthur and His Knights and their generally more mysterious and magical Welsh counterparts, as recounted in the famed Mabinogeon. Here, also, are the sagas of many great heroes of the British race, including the Danish monster-slayer, Beowulf, Cuchulain, the Champion of Ireland, and the beloved Anglo-Saxon archer/bandit/hero, Robin Hood. Recounted as exciting adventure stories, in plain English (no degree in ancient dialects required!), Thomas Bulfinch's THE AGE OF ARTHUR AND HIS KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE is far and away the most complete compilation of Arthurian lore available in this or any age.
