Books with author Mabel Louise Robinson

A friendly, colorful narrative takes Arthur through his life- from the boyhood pulling of the sword from the stone to his death- and introduces the different knights- Launcelot, Galahad, Tristram, Gawaine- as their roles come to prominence in the life of battle, quest and gallantry that they lived. An explanatory introduction adds value to Landmark's offering of the oft told tales. 174 pages.

Back in the sixth century the British Isles were not as they are now. England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, all were divided up into small kingdoms each with its own ruler, each looking for trouble. They fought together, won or lost their lands, shifted their boundaries, until, as one writer says, we need the magic of Merlin to set us straight about the places. But here on this island of Great Britain the conditions under which men lived were much the same in all of the kingdoms. Most of the people were poor beyond belief, and moreover they had no possible way of escaping from that plight of poverty. They were in a complete state of slavery to the rich... Read these tales, then, and realize as you read, that here through the most potent magic of all, the power of the printed word to convey reality, you have come upon a might that moved the world.
