Blurb: “Step into the age of chivalry with this handsome Dent Everyman’s Library edition of Arthurian Romances by Chrétien de Troyes, master storyteller of medieval France. Elegantly translated by W. Wistar Comfort, these tales bring to life the legendary knights of King Arthur’s court—Lancelot, Yvain, Perceval—and their quests for honor, love, and adventure.

Bound in deep blue cloth with intricate gilt floral decoration along the spine and the classic Everyman’s Library tree-and-vine colophon on the cover, this volume is as much a collector’s treasure as it is a portal to the roots of Arthurian myth. The decorated title page, with its elaborate Arts and Crafts border, reflects the enduring beauty of this early 20th-century series.

An ideal copy for readers of medieval literature, lovers of Arthurian legend, or collectors of fine press and Everyman’s Library editions.”
