William Caxton Books

This work begins with the birth of Arthur and the establishment of his kingdom and the fellowship of knights. It describes courtly society which is outwardly secure and successful, but which is, in reality, torn by dissent and ultimately treachery.

This book contains a lesser-known work by Geoffrey Chaucer, The Story of Queen Anelida and the False Arcite. The story revolves around the theme of love and loss, and is a must-read for fans of Chaucer's work or medieval literature in general.
