Beschreibung:
Complete and unabridged, with 54 full-page plates by Edward Burne-Jones, John William Waterhouse and Edmund Blair Leighton. An American uncle takes his niece to England and tells her the Arthurian legend where each of the events is supposed to have happened — Camelot, Glastonbury, Tintagel, the Scilly Isles. William Henry Frost wrote several such books, half travel and half retelling. The device works better than it should: the tale is Malory's and the landscape is real. Fifty-four plates after painters including Frederic Leighton and Edward Burne-Jones turn the legend's own terrain into a painted sequence of courtship, music and royal ceremony.
