A beautifully illustrated and informative survey that explores the world of Arthur and the impact of the Arthurian legends on history and the arts. King Arthur, Camelot, Excalibur, Merlin, the Holy Grail, Lancelot, and Guineverethe names conjure up vibrant images of medieval Europe, of chivalry, and of romance. But did Arthur really exist, or is Camelot only a dream?Christopher Snyder examines the realities and the impact of the Arthurian legends. Medieval texts and archaeological discoveries are used to piece together a picture of the fifth and sixth centuries, when Arthur was believed to have reigned as champion of the Britons. Welsh and Breton bards sang the exploits of Arthur and his knights, in turn inspiring French poets like Chrtien de Troyes to compose the first chivalric romances of the Middle Ages. Snyder traces the development of Arthurian literature in medieval Europe, moving from Britain and France to Germany where writers brought the stories of the Grail and Tristan into association with Arthur. The nineteenthcentury revival of interest in Arthur reached its height in the operas of Richard Wagner, while Camelot has found new adherents today through novels, movies, and Arthurian websites.With its spreadbyspread layout, sidebars, timeline, and directory of Arthurian sites, this is the most thorough exploration of King Arthurs world ever published. 64 color and 198 blackandwhite illustrations

I got this as a gift for my niece who loves fantasy stories. She was thrilled and spent hours flipping through the pages. The vibrant colors and design are really appealing, but I wish it had a little more background info on some characters.

A Unique Take on the Arthurian Legend
I've always been a fan of Arthurian tales, and this book does an amazing job of bringing the world of King Arthur to life. The illustrations are stunning and really capture the magic of the stories. I bought it as a gift for my brother, and he loved it!

Disappointed with the Quality
I was really excited to receive The World of King Arthur, but unfortunately, the binding was a bit loose, and some pages were wrinkled when it arrived. The stories are great, but I expected better quality for the price. Not the best experience overall.

Interesting but Lacked Depth
While I enjoyed the artwork in The World of King Arthur, I found the storytelling a bit shallow. It touched on some great legends but didn't dive deep enough for my taste. Still, it's a fun read for kids!
