King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table

King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table By Howard Pyle The book King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, was written by a scholar named Howard Pyle in the late 1800’s. Mr. Pyle spent seven years researching all the existing information about King Arthur. He rewrote them into four volumes and created this wonderful fantasy. When King Arthur was born, his father was very sick. King Arthur’s father told Merlin …

…ever, Merlin convinced him that it was important to preserve his life as a King using what ever measures he had available to him. His love for Lady Guinevere was the primary motivation for many of his battles. They were happily married until a friendship grew between Lady Guinevere and Sir Launcelot. The ending is very sad yet the book was also very enjoyable. It has inspired me to read more books of this era.
