Beautifully illustrated edition of Malory's classic. It is a modern typeset of the 1485 Caxton edition, so it doesn't have modern niceties like quotation marks. The language is old English with words like "leifer" and "wot" but there is a large glossary and an index to help keep track of characters and places.

It was well worth the effort to read this book. It really is the definitive Arthurian text.
