T.H. White's masterful retelling of the Arthurian legend is an abiding classic. Here for the first time all five volumes that make up the story are published in one volume, as White himself always wished.
Exquisite comedy offsets the tragedy of Arthur's personal doom as White brings to life the major British epic of all time with brilliance, grandeur, warmth and charm.

During Arthurs reign, the kingdom of Camelot was founded to cast enlightenment on the Dark Ages, while the knights of the Round Table embarked on many a noble quest. But Merlyn foresaw the treachery that awaited his liege: the forbidden love between Queen Guenever and Lancelot, the wicked plots of Arthurs half-sister Morgause and the hatred she fostered in Mordred that would bring an end to the kings dreams for Britainand to the king himself.[The Once and Future King] mingles wisdom, wonderful, laugh-out-loud humor and deep sorrowwhile telling one of the great tales of the Western world.Guy Gavriel Kay Describes King Arthur's life from his childhood to the coronation, creation of the Round Table, and search for the Holy Grail.
