Mr. Pyle's new book is similar in scope, style, scheme of illustrations, etc., to his "Story of King Arthur and His Knights," which had a great success two years ago. It deals with the adventures of Launcelot, Tristram, Percival, and the other chiefs of the various groups in King Arthur's court in a manner at once spirited and poetic. As in the earlier volume, the illustrations, both the full pages and the decorative embellishments, with the author's cover-design and title-page, lift the book into the class of holiday art works.
