King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table
6W 1957 Paperback A Puffin Story Book
Notes
King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table form the heart of one of the most enduring legends of the Middle Ages, blending heroism, chivalry, and moral idealism. Arthur, the once and future king of Britain, unites the realm through justice rather than tyranny, symbolized by the Round Table, where no knight sits above another and all are bound by a code of honor. Knights such as Sir Lancelot, Sir Gawain, Sir Percival, and Sir Galahad undertake quests that test courage, loyalty, and purity of heart, most famously the search for the Holy Grail. Yet the legend is also deeply human, marked by love, betrayal, and tragedy—particularly in the fall of Camelot—making Arthur’s story not just a tale of valor, but a meditation on leadership, virtue, and the fragile balance between ideals and human weakness.
