New England -- Juvenile fiction; United States -- History -- Colonial period, ca. 1600-1775 -- Juvenile fiction
This is a very attractive edition of Sir Thomas Malory’s famous book. It
has been edited by Clifton Johnson, who has prepared it particularly for
children from ten to fifteen years of age. Not only is this one of the
golden stories that all boys and girls ought to read—it is one which
they will enjoy reading. Mr. Thomson’s illustrations in black and white
and in color are spirited and add both to the appearance of the volume,
and to the reader’s enjoyment of the text.
