Book excerpt: Considered by professors and scholars to be the definite work on King Arthur. Kirkus Reviews “Here is an important segment of our English heritage in unexpurgated form. A must for all libraries.” Two beautifully bound volumes with magnificent color illustrations.” Saturday Review “Pollard used modernized spelling and, unlike some other version of the stories that also do this, Pollard’s is unexpurgated. This new edition is perfect for the modern reader.” San Francisco Chronicle “This is much more than a source book…by its own merits it is first of all a collection of great stories—brutal, physical and hard-hitting. A.W. Pollard put them into modern spelling and they are happily presented here.”
