5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Book, May 3, 2000
This is a beautiful book, with magazine style articles (they coincide with the pictures). It is a great book to have around the house for a casual fast food reference of Authurian art, and a sort of who's who in the legendary relm of King Arthur. Great for all ages.

1.0 out of 5 stars This edition is NOT illustrated, August 25, 2009
This is a small book with pages yellowing from age (cheap paper). There are a few line drawings, but no "beautiful illustrations." The other reviews obviously refer to different editions, and are completely misleading.
