Wizards and knights! Queens and quests! The tales of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table are legendary favorites whose appeal transcends time. This gorgeously illustrated collection–unavailable for decades–combines the work of renowned illustrator Gustaf Tenggren with captivating storytelling, and reignites the magic of an age long ago and far away.

Originally published in 1962, the handsome reprint includes the same illustrations that made the original so compelling: the late Swedish artist Gustaf Tenggren captures these stories' bravado and high adventure with majestic, almost theatrically composed paintings, many of which stretch dramatically over two pages.
