King Arthur's Knights: The Tales Re-Told for Boys & Girls - Paperback

Henry Gilbert's King Arthur's Knights is a clear and vigorous retelling of the Arthurian legends for younger readers. Bringing together the stories of King Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere, Lancelot, Sir Galahad, Sir Gawain, Sir Tristram, the Quest for the Holy Grail, and the fall of the Round Table, Gilbert presents the medieval romance tradition in direct, readable prose shaped for boys and girls without losing the grandeur of the original legends.

The book belongs to the long tradition of classic children's literature that introduced young readers to myth, legend, chivalry, courage, loyalty, betrayal, and moral trial. Gilbert's version is especially useful as an accessible bridge between children's adventure stories and the older Arthurian sources, preserving the romance and solemnity of Camelot while making the tales approachable for school, library, and home reading. For readers interested in King Arthur, medieval legend, classic juvenile fiction, heroic adventure, and retellings of myth and folklore, King Arthur's Knights remains a durable introduction to one of the central story cycles of English literature.
