So what's the truth behind King Arthur How did the legends take hold And why have they endured for so long Long before the Marvel Universe there was the universe of Arthurian romance and King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table examines the fact and the fiction behind Arthur Lancelot Merlin Guinevere Galahad among others as well as the quest for the Holy Grail. Beginning in the 12th century the book explores what factual basis there is for the tales and how the characters stories and motifs developed through histories epic poems and prose tellings.
