The Story of King Arthur and His Knights
The Story of King Arthur and His Knights: Centennial Edition | Howard Pyle
15 posts | 8 read | 8 to read
In these wonderfully illustrated tales, renowned storyteller Howard Pyle carries us back to the enchanting world of King Arthur and his Round Table. The book chronicles the adventures of Arthur as he draws the sword Excalibur from the anvil, proving his right to the throne, and as he courts and wins the heart of Guinevere. Later he suffers the treachery of the wicked Morgana le Fay and witnesses the tragic fate of the Enchanter Merlin. In Pyles classic retelling, the legends come alive in unsurpassed vividness. More powerful than any of Merlins spells, The Story of King Arthur and His Knights has enthralled and delighted generations of readers fascinated by chivalry, magic, and the unforgettable drama of medieval times.

This beautiful B&N classics edition came today. I am so excited to add it to my growing personal library. If I can manage to get copies of the Sarah Woodbury books dealing with Arthurian legend, they will go on the shelf with this one.

B&N has some of their classics for $5 right now, so I hunted down which location had this one and made my way to purchase it. Another one for the collection, you can never have to much King Arthur hehehe!
That puts my collection at about 14 books so far.

I also ordered the Robin Hood version but I had to ship it as none of my local B&Ns had it.

The story of King Arthur is without a doubt one of my absolute favorites! Taking the time to read Howard Pyle‘s take on the story that I love so dearly.

Some of these challenge prompts have me like 😨😨😨

Anyway, some clever people went with retelling for alternative day of #30daychallenge - I'm going with this picture of a bag I was given for my 21st (I liked that it came with the book, recovered in fabric)

diovival Ooooo! That is so cool. Has it held up well? 7y
WarpedSweetness That is an awesome bag! I second what @diovival said, has it held up well? 7y
AThousandLives87 WANT. NEED. 7y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag It is pretty cool! @diovival @WarpedSweetness - it has lasted well *but* it's quite small so I haven't used it much. 7y
WarpedSweetness @thegirlwiththelibrarybag I would display it in a lighted box for everyone to see. It looks too small for me. I need a bag to fit a physical book or two, my tablet, various other things, and the kids stuff. Lol 7y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @WarpedSweetness, yeah - it's only good for phone, keys (key rings removed) and small coin purse. It's really only for special occasions (I've taken it to a couple of weddings) 7y
WarpedSweetness @thegirlwiththelibrarybag It is so cute though! Is it a conversation starter? 7y

One more word September photo challenge: romance.

#FunFridayPhoto I don't quite remember which one was my first "adult" book, but I think this one was one of the first at age 10 or 11. Don't really know what compelled me to pick it up. I remember having to look up quite a few words, but I didn't get discouraged. I was such a little book nerd, to have read this so young, even though it was a bit tough. I think I need to read it again. I'll have to see if the local library has it. ??????⚔
