Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. The Boy's King Arthur: Sir Thomas Malory's History of King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table, edited by Sidney Lanier and illustrated by N. C. Wyeth, is a retelling of the classic Arthurian legends, adapted from Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur for younger readers. This edition preserves the grandeur and chivalry of the original tales while making them more accessible to a modern audience. It chronicles the legendary deeds of King Arthur, the formation of the Knights of the Round Table, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the eventual fall of Camelot. Lanier's editing streamlines Malory's Middle English prose without losing its poetic rhythm and heroic tone, and Wyeth's vivid, romantic illustrations bring the epic to life. Ideal for young readers and lovers of classic tales alike, the book captures the timeless themes of honor, bravery, loyalty, and tragedy that define the Arthurian saga.

MILITARY, MUSIC AND VARIED BACKGROUND HELP MAKE HIM A QUITE INTERESTING, ENTERTAINING POET. A RARE BOOK THAT WITH POEMS LISTED IN ORDER BY YEAR, THE POETRY LOVER WILL ENJOY AND CHERISH. Sidney Clopton Lanier (February 3, 1842 - September 7, 1881) was an American musician, poet and author. He served in the Confederate States Army as a private, worked on a blockade-running ship for which he was imprisoned (resulting in his catching tuberculosis), taught, worked at a hotel where he gave musical performances, was a church organist, and worked as a lawyer. As a poet he sometimes used dialects. Many of his poems are written in heightened, but often archaic, American English. He became a flautist and sold poems to publications. He eventually became a professor of literature at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, and is known for his adaptation of musical meter to poetry. Many schools, other structures and two lakes are named for him, and he became hailed in the South as the "poet of the Confederacy". A 1972 US postage stamp honored him as an "American poet".
