The Legends of King Arthur and His Knights by James Knowles

3.0

The story isa familiar tale of Western Literature. The story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Many of the characters are familiar, Arthur, Merlin, Lancelot, Lady Guinevere however there are many that I did not recognize. It is full of adventure, including wizards, enchantresses, giants, and even dragons, knights and damsels in distress. The way the women are portrayed in the story is my least favorite part of the story, they are either portrayed as weak and helpless or ungrateful complainers or just pure evil. However since the book was written in the 19TH century and is ultimate about chivalry, I guess it is expected. If you are looking for a book full of adventure this maybe the book for you.
