5.0 out of 5 stars Colorful, richly illustrated intro to Arthurian legend, April 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table (Paperback)

This book is small in size but beautifully illustrated. It is ideal for the person who wants a taste of both Arthurian legend and scholarship and delights in richly colorful reproductions of great masterpieces of art that have been inspired by the legend. It deals with sources for the legend, including reproductions of some documents, themes, main characters, major works, etc.

This review is from: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table (Paperback)

Very beautiful little book, with a lot of the history behind the story of King Arthur, and the different peoples who contributed to it. But if you just want a good storybook, look elsewhere.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's A Short One But A Good One, July 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table (Paperback)

This book is only 160 pages and filled with illustrasions but it is very good. I think that this book would be good for eighth grade and up because sometimes it is hard to understand and follow. It also has wonderful illustrations and a summery of each one.
