Description: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table have captured the world's imagination since medieval times. The tales of King Arthur are rooted in history, but over the years the facts have become shrouded in myth and mystery. In this beautifully illustrated book Arthurian expert John Matthews explores the legends that have grown around the king and uncovers the mysteries of Arthur's Britain. The numerous characters surrounding King Arthur are introduced and the facts behind the epic saga are revealed. Each chapter covers an element of the legend (the early Anglo-Saxon histories where Arthur is first mentioned; the tales of a second Arthur from Celtic legend; and the establishment of various characters), explaining both its historical and archetypal significance. Reproductions of paintings, textiles, and illuminations will appeal to readers.
