Story4.5 out of 5 stars 249
For hundreds of years, the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table has been one of the world's most precious literary possessions. In 1902, the distinguished American artist Howard Pyle undertook to retell and illustrate this classic. His four-volume work has long been considered one of the outstanding interpretations of the Arthurian cycle.

They loved goodness
Reviewed: 04-04-24
Beautiful story, get past the monotone narrator and look up some of the words to make the story understandable, it is worth it. The knights and bell dames of this time loved goodness and enjoyed partaking in good things with the frank ease of children and the wit of comedians. They had a good time. They did what is right and recognized their wrongs. They loved to give honor to those greater than themselves and service was near to kinship. They all seem like a big family, some of them get up to mischief but they all treat one another with dignity and honor (mostly). Their faults are sometimes severe and comical even but they turn back from their hot headed deeds with equal part sorrow and grief with no excuse. Simply lighthearted and full of joy. They liked to be happy. I think some people today, perhaps a lot, want misery, or goodness and embracing the truth are too difficult for them to attempt with humility.
